week 11

I did a lot of thinking about the page but the drawings don't show as much of it as I would like. I'm going to keep working an that. I didn't count pages which i do think was good. But I also drew less which is bad. I did get out, but when I'm out sometimes I'm just not inspired to draw. I went to the botanical gardens again but is was so pretty that didn't draw a ton. I'm going to go back with fall colored pencils. My muted unsaturated markers left me bored surrounded by the brilliant oranges and reds of Virginia autumn. I must capture it! Also I've never been out there on a weekend, there may be more people to draw out there then.

I did look draw from the goat pics and studied the human head. Need to do a lot more studying of the head. I have been digging through my fashion illustration videos looking for those by Gladys Parent Palmer! She is so amazing. Watching her draw thrills me.
