The Better To Hear You With…

March 31st, 2009

174 The Better To Hear You With...Just a quick post tonight, then it’s off to bed.  I want to try something different tomorrow.  I want to move my “creative moment” to the beginning of my day to see if it has a bigger impact on me than it already has.

Whenever I have drawn ears in the past, I have always used that symbol language that you develop as a child.  I would draw an oval with a scribble in the middle.  I probably still will for the average sketch.  Everyone was asleep by the time I got around to this tonight, so tonight’s EDM challenge, draw an ear, is from a photo reference from Wet Canvas.  I suppose I should be practicing that too, but I much prefer drawing from life.  It’s safer this way, though.  The women folk get a bit edgy when I turn on the light while they are trying to sleep.  There are just some things you would be better off drawing from a photo.  Like  rabid pit bulls… or frenzied sharks… or mad cows…
