In my workshop with Sara Post we learned about this new drawing project run by Chole Briggs. I was a bit wary because she chooses people that are logged in, and since I have developed a phobia of cameras etc. But I did make the plunge and of course I was asked to pose, which I did. I enjoyed the session very much. Here is the fruit of my effort. These are all between 3-5 minutes, the length of a music track!
At first I really didn’t like the results, was a bit tight, but relooking felt that they weren’t so bad, of course really need practice. For those on the west coast times are either early morning or middle of the night, but for me Paris is just 1 hour behind and I could join both the morning and evening. Join me!

איזה יופי אמא!!!!
Slowly getting the hang of things!
I love these quick sketches, Carol. Your rendering of hands along with faces is amazing. Agree with a previous viewer about line and shadow appearance/disappearance.
Thank you for your feedback. Tomorrow morning I will do another session. They are very quick so there is a sense of stress. Something I have to work on..
Carol, fabulous! I have scrolled through your sketches several time already, pulled in by line, absence of line, use of shading, use of suggestion where no mark at all has been placed. High five to you for diving into these explorations, this practice. You inspire!
Thanks so much your feedback means so much. I love sketching and faces especially.
ממש יפה כל הכבוד
Thanks, so glad things are working.
וואו ממש אהבתי את הפוטרטים
These are all wonderful, Carol! Pretty amazing for how quick they are.
Your willingness to learn and try new things is always inspiring!
Enjoy!
