Boots Update

Talent without discipline is like an octopus on roller skates.  There's plenty of movement, but you never know if it's going to be forward, backwards, or sideways.

          Well, the boot drawing above is really taking shape.  I have about 6 hours into this and think maybe one more session will finish it off.  It is so easy for me to put things aside and start something new ~ so many pictures to draw and paintings to paint!  However, at this point it is important to finish each piece in order to practice the fine points of value.  Now it is time to really look at these boots in the photograph and really see all the different gradations from lightest light to darkest dark.  Sharp eyes and sharp pencils!
