“Self Portrait V”, Update #1

July 20th, 2008 · 2 Comments

I’ve taken this week off work to hole up in my studio and do nothing but draw. The “draw-a-thon” doesn’t officially start until tomorrow, but I had a chance this afternoon to get a head start on the first of four drawings I hope to finish before next Sunday.

With one (sometimes two)  one-hour sessions a day, it generally takes me a week to finish a drawing, so logic would dictate that if I spend 8AM thru 5PM up in my studio without any other responsibilities, four drawings should be cake.

 This of course assumes that the lure of Civilization Revolution is resistible.  I guess we’ll see!

    On our recent vacation my husband bought Civ Revolution on the day it was released…he played the rest of the vacation! (Although, to his credit, he hasn’t touched it since we left the airport.) So, good luck with that…

    Enjoy your week!
