October 27th drawing session
I am glad I showed up for last night's drawing session. The model was dynamic, even in repose. And there was good, creative energy in the group.

Figurative artist John Newman is featured as part of a CBC program Tapestry. You can listen to the episode 'When Mind and Medicine Meet' HERE.
'...John Newman is a renowned Canadian artist and teacher who is celebrated for his depictions of the human form. But after a paralyzing stroke, he lost the only thing he says makes life worth living - his ability to draw. Now he is using sheer willpower to get it back.'
Newman is represented by the Kinsman-Robinson Gallery in Toronto and there is a link to his work at the Gallery Website HERE.
