I drew a portrait



Yes, it's weekend drawing event time and I drew a portrait. I usually choose the portraits when participating in the weekend drawing event. I wonder if the hosts usually show the people the drawings that people have done of them. I noticed after I scanned the drawing, that the eyes are a bit off (I didn't do the mirror test), but all in all, it's certainly not too bad for a two hour drawing. Portraits are my thing, but I haven't drawn a complete portrait in a long time. I usually just do these two hour exercises. One of these days I'm going to have to do a complete portrait, from start to finish.

In other news, I am quite cranky about the fact that I had to carry the supervisor phone all day at work and forgot to take it out of my pocket before I left. Now I'm going to have to get up earlier than I would like tomorrow morning and traipse (can it qualify as traipsing if I'm driving a car?) all the way to work to return the phone. *grumble* If we had some guidance and people knew what they were supposed to do, they would know that that there is a person that is supposed to gather the phones at the end of the night. I'm not blaming anyone else. It would just be nice to have a back-up person. That's all...

akk that phone. that phone. that phone. made me remember a time when somebody (named Maureen) came chasing me down to see if I was going to put that phone away. Hope you got some more zzzs today. I like the portrait and believe you are a gifted portrait artist indeed. And speaking of gifts, how is your choc chip cookie story coming along? I can't wait to read it and reading it will be a gift for me : )
