My blog posts have been very sparse lately but now that Summer is winding down I'm in the Studio more. A couple of weeks ago my friend Angela and I went to Chicago, IL to take a week long drawing workshop from Henry Yan at the Palette and Chisel. His book is "Henry Yan's Figure Drawing Techniques and Tips". It was very inspirational to watch his demos and study his drawings which were so well done and beautiful. Of course I already knew that to draw well you must practice and practice then practice more.
Angela and I had to eat at Gino's and have their famous Chicago Style Pizza!
The view from our Hotel--if you look closely between buildings you can see our Lake Michigan view (lol).
Yes I am still painting, here's my latest 3 hour head study from Monday night.

Good to hear you back on blogging. A week long drawing workshop sounds wonderful.
Hi Suzanne, seems like forever since I've posted! Yes the workshop was a lot of work but definately worth it.
Glad you're back and had a good time in Chicago!
Happy painting,
Paz
Paz, good to hear from you, had a great time in Chicago :-)
Ah...good ole Chicago pizza! Years ago, I worked just down the street from Gino's, and we often lunched there.
Glad you're blogging again, Rhonda. You were missed!
