How drawing changes everything. To me drawing is a connected, but also separate activity to painting. My painting can be traced to something derived and developed from a drawing-like activity, but essentially it "draws" on precedent developed in previous painting. Drawing, even abstract drawing, is a parallel experience (for me; I see how others see it as an essential connection). Life drawing is a parallel universe. Even if the product is not always entirely satisfying, the process is immersing. After a few sessions I start to see again. I wonder: where have I been all this time? Look at this world, eh? Also I wonder: why do I need this trigger? Why can't I be like this all the time? Why do I ever pause? Why can't I be drawing every moment?
Separate issue: I have agreed to design a set for Moonlight and Magnolias. The previous play strikes some time at the end of January. This production and set will travel to Artesia NM for the NM Theater Festival in March. I want to use as much projection (including video|) as I can.
