It seems that no one appreciates drawings as much as artists do. I think the public sees drawings as a poor substitute for paintings. I am blown away by a quality drawing, maybe more than by paintings.
Though I'm trying to learn to paint, my DickBlick shopping cart has more drawing supplies than anything else. There's just something pure and honest about drawing.

Can you post close ups, Jimmie? I really like this, a little unnerving with the scissors pointing down to a blood red belt, and the look on her face. Kind of a strong reactio to this one, but I love it.
I so admire your working in that cold attic so late at night. I really wish I could do the same, AND quit my day job. I don't know how you do it. does your day job make you as crazy as mine makes me. I am so depressed being here and not in my studio. Oh well, some day...
I love you work Jimmie...

I'm sure she's perfectly nice, but to be on the safe side, if you're invited to her home, don't look in the closets.

  You WANT to work in a cold attic?!?!?! Just kidding, I hate it up there during the winter. I usually wear close to nothing when I work, so being in a shirt, sweater, pants, socks, and slippers is very restricting for me. Thanks Pat.

Jimmie, I predict that there will be a time when your bar simply can't be raised any higher.
