Yesterday was drawing day. You know that day that comes around every year when artists are supposed to clog up the Internet with a million drawings... In the past, I've probably done 4 of 5 drawings on drawing day. Yesterday I only did one. Well, two if you count the gorilla which I decided to post as a drawing day drawing, even though I drew it a day earlier. Anyway, part of my problem was, I just couldn't draw. All my attempts were too uptight and I got frustrated and put my pencils away early in the day. So, this morning, here comes Bulldog Bob to the rescue. Bulldog Bog is very loose. He doesn't think too much (in fact, the photo I used came from a website listing the 10 least intelligent dog breeds--poor Bulldog Bob;))and he knows how to go with the flow. Sketching is a good way to just let go and stop worrying about the lines being perfectly placed. Sometimes not having the erase option is a good thing.
I do, however, wish I had the erase option for work today. It would be good to just go up to the building and erase it for the day, so I could stay home on Sunday like the rest of the population.
