Welcome to Litsy!

I'm back from my weekend of mindful drawing. It was challenging but fun: really rewarding!
I'd never been intimidated by a pinecone before! This page wasn't the best drawing I did, but it's my favourite (as it's a significant milestone in dealing with my "stuff").
The workshop was based on the tagged book but these two mindfulness books by Anna Black, the tutor, are also in the Litsy database.

Franck comes across as rather pleased with himself at times, and claims to find only "pretentious impersonal signallings" in the attitudes of pretty women: when he can see beauty in a dead rabbit, what is that but a failure to see beyond his own prejudices to the actual person before him?

At his best he shows that, through the habit of drawing as process rather than product, attention becomes a form of devotion, which is another word for love.

I'm going on a mindful drawing weekend next month so I reserved this book from the library. Looks like it's had quite the eventful life. (Seriously, who treats books like this?!)
