So very tired...searching for picture to upload unsucessflly. Must be the exhaustion and early am work tomorrow! Amy Irwin took pictures of me at Imagine on Main. Now if I can figure out how to change the pixel size!
That's me! I was censoring my picture and thought...boy most the tribe have no idea what I look like! Had to cut out my long braid trying to reduce the size!

Using my practice of quick poses in life drawing, I opportune to experiment with colors and differing line textures to recreate quickly the effects of light on the spiritual essence of the human form.
