Having a nice day drawing at the National Gallery. This is a ceramic bust of a British King, so not sure why he has a Roman laurel?!

Had a good drawing class the other day as well. The model is intelligent, and has a moody quality to him, which I really like.

The drawing has been pretty tough going recently, and I'm feeling pulled in two different directions by two different parts of myself. One is very slow, tender, really paying attention to subtle changes in the form and light quality etc. The other side is very direct, high contrast, fast . . . I'm hoping to bring these these two parts together into a piece one day . . .

Anyway, lovely sunshine, time for a pizza
