April 6 2009:
"It's definitely a Pettit"

Woking, Surrey

Today we completed our life drawing classes after nine weeks behind the easel. It is something I had not attempted before, save drawing a clothed figure when I was about 15!

Our model this week and last was Nigel, and since we were contunuing the same pose, we had extra complications in getting the pose and lighting in line with last week.

I may not be very good, but it certainly has been quite therapeutic.

looks pretty good to me Ray. Having tried self portraits at an art class I can vouch for how difficult it is.
