Can't fill a full cup 


I came to NEMISA as someone who could draw I new was not the best drawer but I new I could materialize a picture on a page if I had to ,given I had not drew in a long time but I still had the skill.So when I was given the task to draw a live person or model I didn't have much of a problem and I thought I was up to the task,but I was not I saw that a couple minutes in the task.when I finished the task I thought I will do better next time but I didn't.

The are lectures that monitor and help us to improve with drawing I didn't want to listen but as time progressed I saw that everything I thought I new was of no use ,so I had to start over and relearn all I new about drawing .That process is hard and confusing cause you start using techniques that you are not familiar with but as time goes by you see the results or improvements .

The new techniques are still hard to use, the mind and hand are having a hard time adjusting but slowly but surely their being ingrained in the mind.Someone said that "a smart man is a man that knows that he knows nothing" this has been a lesson for me in life drawing class cause I had to admit to myself that I know nothing about drawing.

  2. I feel like this was an emotional experience.
    I really don't mind reading it over and over again because it's enjoyable.
