quick 5 mins poses each drawn with ink and wooden stick. fun but very very messy. good thing it was water soluable ink. When prof originally handed me some ink w/o anything I looked at him uhm I need a brush for this. HE's like no and said nothing else . I told him so what am I using to paint my fingers? or eh charcoal stick? He must have been hilarious. Anyways he just didn't get around to passing the sticks :) boy was i glad i didn't have to dip my fingers into ink ... ick . cuticles nails would ahve been stained beyond belief

5/1/05 H.W museum drawings GLUTTONEY on of Paul Cadmus's seven deadly sins. why did I choose this painting to sketch vs. the other 6? Sigh because it was so disgusting and nobody wanted to stare at it for long. That was only painting that didn't have a crowd around it. An obese man stuffing his mouth with handfuls of maggots, worms and parts of his intestines until he's blowing up and leaking putrid fluids and maggots. The graphics was enough to make me nauseous so I kept telling myself its only spagetti and meat sauce AND that this is only a painting. Anyways I was happy to finish. But looks like i will redo if have time
