Last Thursday Edna and I got together to draw at her studio. We're continuing to add color. I've added a detail of one of the drawings. The details - smears, falling grains of pastel, incomplete erasures, lightness or heaviness of touch, paper texture - that give immediacy to the drawn image get lost in the translation from drawing to internet image.
