I have always loved drawing the figure and have really missed the figure class I took in Dallas. I have tried a couple of classes but they just don't live up to what I had in Dallas. As a substitute I have been drawing various things from life, flowers and fruit to name a few. As a result of drawing these wonderful peppers that I picked up in Monterey this weekend I think I have found my figure substitute. I am so reminded of the human form and gesture as I draw the peppers. I sure hope the farmers market here in Tahoe has more.
