Actually, I liked David's drawing at every stage. He has tremendous control over his media, not just charcoal and pencil, but oil as well.

I saw a little graphite (? I think) head demo he did at this past PSA meeting in the Exhibitors' hall - unfortunately I didn't realize that the demo was happening until after the fact. It was gorgeous.

If David doesn't mind, I may have an image of the PSA drawing in my files that I'll post.

The Edge

Fascinating demo. The music set my teeth on edge and heart beat accelerated. (nearly called the cardiologist!!!)

Hey, that's probably what was intended. I guess serenity isn't the total answer. E-N-E-R-G-Y may be what's needed to produce a dynamic piece like this. Pretty fun, I'd say.

Oh, my, is my age showing??? Do you suppose???

Actually, the demo I was thinking of was drawn by David just prior to the PSA event. Charcoal.

Regarding the video, David said it was impromptu, filmed by one of his students, hence the "Blair Witch Project" effect
