Lefty Lucy Quick Sketches

Last night Lefty Lucy posed in costume like Captain America. She starts posing at 7:00. Unfortunately I had another meeting to attend at 8:00. I figured that I'd rater sketch of of the poses than not do any of them at all, so I did the 1, 2, and 5 minute poses and missed out on the longer poses. As you can see I don't always get to finish the sketches on the short poses...especially when I'm trying



I received some sad news today. One of my favorite watercolor artists, Jerry (Gerald) Brommer passed away. I took 3 different week-long workshops with Jerry when I used to go to the Springmaid Watermedia Workshops in Myrtle Beach. He was a talented artist, instructor, author of books on different kinds of art techniques (many of which were staples in art classes), and just a wonderful sweet man with a great sense of humor. He was an excellent teacher and during the time I took the classes I really enjoyed talking to him and learning from him. I am so glad that I purchased one of his paintings at one of the workshops. He and his wife, Georgia (who always came to the resort with him and supplied chocolates for the students) both had been hospitalized with Covid 19 recently. Here is a photo from one of the workshops I took with him. RIP, Jerry and keep your brushes wet!

  1. I'm so sorry to hear about your instructor's passing. You honor his life whenever you paint because you took his classes and incorporate what you learned from him.

  2. A GREAT SPELL CASTER (DR. EMU) THAT HELP ME BRING BACK MY EX GIRLFRIEND.
    Am so happy to testify about a great spell caster that helped me when all hope was lost for me to unite with my ex-girlfriend that I love so much. I had a girlfriend that love me so much but something terrible happen to our relationship one afternoon when her friend that was always trying to get to me was trying to force me to make love to her just because she was been jealous of her friend that i was dating and on the scene my girlfriend just walk in and she thought we had something special doing together, i tried to explain things to her that her friend always do this whenever she is not with me and i always refuse her but i never told her because i did not want the both of them to be enemies to each other but she never believed me. She broke up with me and I tried times without numbers to make her believe me but she never believed me until one day i heard about the DR. EMU and I emailed him and he replied to me so kindly and helped me get back my lovely relationship that was already gone for two months.
