i have a journal that I reserve for studying master works. The pages have an aged look, and the hard cover is meant for a drawing of it's own. Here, I am working in the style of Da Vinci, loosely trying to keep my marks within his bounds. I am using an India ink pen for this, no pencil or fountain pen, just the line to shade and turn the form. I can learn so much by working from a master's piece - I don't dio this nearly enough. Perhaps I need to give it one day out of 30? I really LOVE working from life, but drawing from Da Vinci could only improve my skills. Painting number 1623 in 1623 days.
