The White Horse November 30, 2006

11/29/06: Today was crazy busy at work. I didn’t get home until after 9 — and I hadn’t done a drawing. So I put my hand into a box of my photos and pulled out a picture I’d taken of horses in Grass Valley, CA. The drawing was so deadly dull, I threw some watercolor on, and liked it better.

Day 23 November 24, 2006
