DivaJood said...: tdharma, it has been an interesting journey. Thanks for your comment about the charcol drawing; I don't like materials that can slide off the paper. I like paint; I like watercolor; pencil; ink; oil pastel. But charcol and regular pastel, not so much for me.

But it's the doing them that just keeps telling me my mood, or physical state. I intend to keep going, but probably won't post them after July 8th.; Tue Jul 04, 08:33:00 PM PDT

Could it be that when you have less control of the medium miraculous things happend in the message?; Thu Jul 06, 05:47:00 PM PDT
