My year of drawing is off to a slow start. Four months in and not much activity in two sketchbooks. Fresh start. Oh, forgot. Started at the lunar new year, March 5th, so not so bad. What six weeks in? Above, a medallion from an African headdress. On the actual piece, this medallion is fully encircled by glass beads and set in leopard fur–stunning power.
These are Italian marble patterns drawn from a book about architectural stone from around the world. Below, back to headdresses, an African calabash helmet among the bits on this page. And noses.
