OT- Whats your favorite Hobby? Here's mine
Some of you here on OH know that I like to draw. Well, I've been pretty busy this Christmas season making new pencil portraits. This is the one I completed and sold today:
I stopped at Hobby Lobby to pick up some more art supplies. (blending stumps, knead-able erasers, and Bristol board). While I was standing there trying to decide which size paper I needed, a young petite woman stopped me and asked if I were an artist. Hmm? Well..Yeah..I do pencil portraits, I offered. She explained that she has a ten year old daughter who is starting to draw a lot and wanted to get stuff she needed, and asked if the drawing book she picked out was a good choice. It wasn't bad, I told her BUT I know a better one , and walked over to the next aisle to get Lee Hammond's Big Book of Drawing, the very book that has helped me reach the level I'm at with my drawing. I spent about 15 minutes with her, answering her questions and just feeling excited that I might be helping a new artist...and helped a mom find the right present for her daughter.
well...off to wrap the rest of the presents..........
P.S. here's a few from my collection:
