It might appeal to you actually, he often writes about artists. I've got a little cheapie box too, but I love it :) but you can pay a small fortune for some of them.<BR/><BR/>Kim xKimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15696026498050233726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13313028.post-48931455785604861972008-11-10T16:33:00.000+00:002008-11-10T16:33:00.000+00:00Yes, certainly anatomical!

Even the switch from drawing to painting always takes a bit of a transition for me. Especially when working on book interiors. It's much quicker if I can draw everything first, and then paint everything after (rather than a piece or a spread at a time). I must need a better gear shift...tlchanghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10259427561396960607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13313028.post-39220294776763441252008-11-08T23:28:00.000+00:002008-11-08T23:28:00.000+00:00It is a good thing Bunchy doesnt have ears yet to ...It is a good thing Bunchy doesnt have ears yet to hear such things said about her.
