I have come to peace with myself.  I am a draftsman.  My lofty goal is to meet the dictionary definition: "an artist exceptionally skilled in drawing."  I know the "Art World" considers drawings to be the least important, aka the least marketable of the arts.  If we just look at 2-D artworks, the Market hierarchy goes like this:  

Paintings are the most important.  Oil paintings first, acrylic second.  In general, Big is Better.

All other media pale in comparison.  Watercolor and pastel jockey around for second place, I suppose.  Printmaking -- intaglio, lithography, woodcut, silkscreen, etc. -- might come in third. Collage is in there somewhere.  But, drawings?  Pencil or ink on paper?  Smudgy charcoal?  Puh-leeeeeeze!  They aren't "finished"!

I am at peace, though.  What do I love to do?  I love to draw.  Do what you love.

Here is a recent drawing.  Done on my iPad, using the Sketch Club app, then editing in Camera+.

A few weeks ago, the theme of the week for my Daily Draw group was spirits.  So, here I share four drawings from that week.

I have very much enjoyed being part of the Daily Draw.  So much so, I signed up again for the month of May. A few times, I have gone to bed, then sat up with a start and said, "I didn't do my drawing!"  Then, I had to get up and dash off a quick sketch.  Doing a drawing a day, on a theme chosen by others, has proven to be a good way to do work, even if the Spirit hasn't moved in the creative part of me.  If you just get to work, the juices do get flowing.
