I know I am biased as my background was drawing and its where I cut my teeth and it still is my comfort zone. I can't begin to describe the level of satisfaction I get from graphite and paper and seeing something emerge from a blank sheet of paper.
I am buried in fish both figuratively and literally lately and now have two weeks off work. That means I devote two weeks more or less to producing, marketing, printing, drawing and painting. I may be glad to go back to work at the end of it!
While I know that fish aren't everyone's idea of good time, they are predominant in my life and art right now but even so, I still wander over into other subjects and tonight was this sketch of a young woman before her wedding. This was an image from the WetCanvas All Media Weekend Event. I haven't participated for awhile and really had a need to draw something. Go on over and see Valri. Tell her I sent you.
And go draw something!

Beautiful, Jeanette! Love this.
You are so right about drawing. I think it helps my painting so much. Beautiful lady.
I am also in agreement Jeanette. I think drawing is the bones to everything. Including abstract.
We must be thinking along the same pathway... I too have been popping into WC more lately. Though I do miss the old crowd. I feel like such a stranger.
I agree with you Jeanette. I love to draw and bring a pencil with me to meetings. I have loads of sketches of water glasses, noses, candy etc. So I even get some drawing time at work.
Lovely sketch. Many of us must be thinking along the same lines. I rarely sketch these days and I'm beginning to miss it.
A timely reminder for me too. Lovely darwing.
Thanks Sue.
Jo, this image was taken in 1962 apparently and yes she's lovely.
Robin, I don't get to WC as much as I used to. Yes, there is a completely different group there now, but to be expected.
Susan, meetings are great for some surreptious drawing :)
Bille, I think we all draw more previously. I do love it and try to make time for it each day.
Thank you Bridget.
I find I am strongly drawn to art with solid drawing as the base. I'm sure that is why I like you artwork so much!
Thanks so much Margaret. It really is my first love.
