For instance, this past summer, I attended a country dance that was huge - many many subjects from whom I could work, and did, but I also relied on lots of photos. I would be in the midst of drawing - very quickly - one couple dancing by and another would come into view and I would stop drawing the first one and photograph the second one. It was like a banquet!Connie Chadwellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17643456021535622394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4947317026466117842.post-31227289092601095482017-03-15T09:16:18.623-07:002017-03-15T09:16:18.623-07:00I really like this one - the brisk movement and in...I really like this one - the brisk movement and intertwining lines of the limbs of the dancers. I want to ask you, in this one piece and in other ones, do you work from a photo ever? or do you always do a quick sketch from the scene?
