Trying to find time to draw
I stopped at a waffle house on my drive to North Carolina on Friday. "Grandma" (the name the other wait staff called my waitress) took my order and while waiting I took out my sketchbook and did a quick drawing of the salt and pepper shaker.

Cravings
Occasionally I will get a drawing "craving". Maybe because of the figure drawing class or just my general interest in science stuff, but I had a desire to draw some skeletons. I had to go from a photo, since human skeletons aren't something that you can just find laying around (thankfully).
Figure drawing
I am taking a figure drawing class. In art school I never really felt like I got how to figure draw and it has always felt like a blind spot in my art education. So I signed up for a class to try and improve. The first couple of classes were so frustrating. Each drawing I did looked awful, but I vowed to stick with it. At the third class things started to click and I came away with some drawings that I liked.
