Pen Fun

 Now and then I like to do some drawing at my design table. This is a pen and ink drawing of a Belted Kingfisher. I was a drawing major in art school long ago. A couple of years ago I bought myself a nice drawing table. I would love to make a living drawing, but alas, drawing is on the very bottom of the food chain of the art world. To make money, you must be a painter. 

in my view, drawing is the most important medium of art. It is the skeleton of all skills in art. Even the most famous abstract painters knew how to draw. My collage work has helped to improve my drawing. I don’t use other templates or patterns. I don’t cut out pictures for my collages.  I draw every collage myself first. Drawing is crucial to all mediums and basic design skill. I keep working at it. 

Country artists practice drawing…..
