You have brought me great piece of mind surrounding the Nicky story. And an overwhelming urge to send you money toward plane fare reimbursement. <BR/><BR/>Many of us would have gone there too had we been invited to walk in that world but just for a few minutes. You are brave one indeed. Your sense of humiliation is shared. I wish you all the best.TR Ryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00595967532391171082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21736689.post-78089696584419433962008-07-24T10:00:00.000-04:002008-07-24T10:00:00.000-04:00Good to see you back, Patrick.

At my class the model changes position every two minutes for ten poses, followed by longer poses finishing with one or two twenty minute poses. It really is a training session because you don't end up with a finished product. I am learning by trial and error.<BR/>On another note, I'll be back in NYC next week. farmboyz@mac.comTony Adamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10091330901996916966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21736689.post-40937528199623581562008-07-20T17:29:00.000-04:002008-07-20T17:29:00.000-04:00I'm never too mature to snicker, my darlin' ... :)...I'm never too mature to snicker, my darlin' ... :) <BR/><BR/>Love, love, love the video! <BR/><BR/>By the way, I had a dream last night ... and you were in it. <BR/><BR/>Joe is always so amazingly astute, eh?Cooperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02327268988762513100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21736689.post-25696790499328306402008-07-20T15:59:00.000-04:002008-07-20T15:59:00.000-04:00I just realized, Coltrane's going to have to train...I just realized, Coltrane's going to have to train a new roommate!!!

And I suspect many a wonder that makes Patrick Patrick. I hope we hear more about your adventure. Dreams, and dreams recounted, are fascinating to me.<BR/><BR/>The video is irresistible. It reminds me of those wonderful clips showing continents forming, accumulating substance, presence, detail. It was Patrick from the first few strokes, its raw bones. Then as it acquired depth, the smudges, approaches abandoned and refined, but leaving traces of themselves, are very like the narratives that end up defining our faces, our lives.<BR/><BR/>"A mistake on the page is still LOADS better than a blank page, with you standing there, shivering and paralyzed, clutching your unused pencil."<BR/><BR/>LOL. Circle that with a magic marker and draw arrows pointing to it.

I admire his technique and his talent. I would guess he's been doing this for quite awhile and that video can show his technique better at a faster pace than missing the nuances of how he draws by watching it in real time. The eye takes in the whole picture at a faster speed in my opinion and one can always go back and watch a certain segment over and over again until satisfied. <BR/><BR/>Thanks, I enjoyed watching it and it was a pleasure to see all those marks and smudges eventually turn into a very good drawing of you.Butchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09481663364693052582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21736689.post-38299676077548269932008-07-20T00:24:00.000-04:002008-07-20T00:24:00.000-04:00This is SO cool...can you technically count this a...This is SO cool...can you technically count this as a "music video" for your resume? <BR/><BR/>Heh heh...he is a pretty talented artist: I sort of expected you to open your eyes and say something toward the end there, forgetting "you" were but a sketch.<BR/><BR/>Love your point of it all though, trying new things, stepping into them with both feet, sometimes roses, sometimes dog poo...but with confidence and courage.<BR/><BR/>"Too mature"?!?!

Early on, it was difficult to see how some of the incomplete areas might end up, and watching it morph into a vivid portrait was something I want to do again.
