7″ X 7″ colored pencil on Strathmore drawing bristol

Another in the Weekly Drawing series. Inspired by a visit to the Landscape Arboretum followed by wine-tasting at a nearby winery, which led to a strange urge to do a colored pencil rendering. Now I have that out of my system.

How is is possible that 3 accomplished (and mature) artists find it advantageous to make a pact with one another to complete (and “submit” to one another), one drawing per week?  Not a sketch idea for a painting or a thumbnail to work out a composition or a preliminary drawing for rendering in another medium. A drawing done for its own sake….for no other purpose than to enjoy the process.  I love to draw.  I have always loved to draw.  But somehow I had gotten out of the habit of just drawing for the pure enjoyment of it. We are 5 weeks into this “project”, and I am loving it…..I am seeing more each day as I consider my next drawing. And I am now doing more than just one drawing per week……just for the fun of it.  I find the process itself to be a form of meditation.
