Spent yesterday working, first day for a week due to disruptions; how does one ever manage to paint. Christmas is looming, cards unsent, presents unbought. Bah.
Drawing though, what a little anchor that is turning out to be. Yesterdays model was Natalie, the dancer - slim and sinuous. Drew quick ones into drawing book, rest on heavy watercolour paper. Was especially alert to decoration, its uses and abuses. Natalie is pretty and it would be easy to just tip into pleasing stuff. Resisted - either heavily patterned and so escaped being pretty, or minimalised. Some worked, can be used.
Thence to laminate the exhibition invitations and to finish the posters. Must address all that on Friday, ask Andree to help press release on Thursday. Today and tomorrow are mine - except for the lunch tomorrow and the visit to a sick friend in the morning. Heh ho.
Hardly slept last night but feel ok on it. Will move to sur-studio bed tonight so if I cant sleep I can at least get easily to work, no one near to disturb. Getting my head around Circe - structure wrong, need to re-build figure.
