Here's a drawing I did yesterday from some photos I received from a client. This particular shot has a lot of potential for a painting; and it's a beautiful home, isn't it? At Kevin McPherson's lecture in Middletown this spring, I noted the following quote "As the soul is intangible in the human body, so is art in a painting. But we recognize when it is missing."

For me, this is so true! And this particular scene already has a lot of soul in it to inspire me, so I enjoyed drawing it. I see so much artwork that is technically proficient but lacking soul. Doing that does not interest me.

Onto Fourth of July festivities this weekend; Happy Independence Day!
