Girl with Flowers 3

























The ear tends to be lazy, craves the familiar and is shocked by the unexpected; the eye, on the other hand, tends to be impatient, craves the novel and is bored by repetition.

W. H. Auden

I just can't leave well enough alone ~ guess I'm "craving the novel." Once again I feel I've overworked another drawing. While the detail in her outfit sits okay with me, there is way too much going on in the bouquet. With every drawing, though, I learn so much. The other problem here is that the I've overworked the paper ~ too much charcoal and too much erasing. Well, there's always another drawing to be done.
