Thanks for bringing that to my attention Katherine. Are they lightfast rated in the CPSA booklet, or somewhere else? I’ll have to check it out.

Have you checked the lightfastness of graphitints? A number are OK and a number are not.

Ain’t it the truth! Next week I’m getting back to work more.

Hi Holly, thanks for checking in. I realized I rarely share my source photos, mostly because I change them so much, so this time I thought I would!

I love to see how you use photographs, and I am especially interested in the current piece that you are working on from life. I’ll be watching…

Yes, it is fun to work from life and a little more challenging, but photos are great tools as well. You know why it looks like I’ve gotten more done? The paper. I love working on these colored Canson papers. They are great for this type of drawing.

I can’t believe how much you have done on the new drawing, with all the recent interruptions you have had! With “This Above All” I worked some from photo refs I had taken, and some from life. I really enjoyed working from life with what was right in front of me, and want to work toward doing that more and more.
