| One of the joys of getting older is that you can start to moan and be grumpy about all manner of illogical things. However, this morning my human rights are being oppressed because I’ve been quietly, I’m sure my wife and son wouldn’t agree with that description, moaning about all manner of things and they won’t let me. Actually they are ignoring my grumbling – surely the worst form of oppression – and I get the feeling that this is the way life will be from now on in. “…Help Help … come and see the oppression inherent in the system…” as someone once said.
As for the drawing this really got away from me. I’ve been trying to be methodical in my approach after seeing a rather good YouTube video of drawing technique. However, I forgot one small thing – double and triple check the proportions as you go along. For ages I hadn’t done this and then found that my original blocking out was wrong which made a nonsense of the drawing. I really got frustrated by all this – more grumpy old man – until I realised my error and corrected most of the proportion problems. Not a perfect drawing but it does show some movement in the right direction as far as I’m concerned. Sent from Yahoo! Mail for iPad |
