"Logic is one dimensional, creativity is not. Often in Artwork and also in life it's only by working through the process that we begin to satisfy questions leading to a solution". (Nikki)

"Trust your intuition, it's just like going fishin'; you cast your line until you get a bite". (Paul Simon)

"...the painting has a life of its own. My mission is to bring forth this life". (Jackson Pollock)

Josee, a portrait of my neice. Gift, work in progress, 11 x 14 inches Graphite on paper.

Drawing portraits is like brain surgery - one millimeter off, more or less, in any direction makes a difference.

    You are ABSOLUTELY right about that comment. I just took a foray into portraiture and now it’s turned to the wall. Botched surgery!

    This is beautiful.
