Hi, Everyone! This is Luana writing. I hope that you are all working diligently on new work now that we are well into the new year. Some of my students who recently visited the studio asked why I never display the sketches in my notebooks/workbooks. We were discussing the wonderful Leonardo exhibition in Atlanta at the High Museum . This address should get you to the exhibit http://www.high.org/main.taf?p=3,1,1,15,1 or go directly to the home page at the High http://www.high.org/ The exhibit is there until the 21st ofr February. Quite lovely, inspiring.... when one walks in, each person receives a magnifying glass and invited to approach the artwork at very close range....how unusual! So here is a page from one of my toned-paper, 14x11 sketchbooks. The work is in brown Sharpie ink, touched with green-grey watercolor pencil, and white charcoal pencil. Why ink? It is a little like those folks who do the NY Times crossword puzzles in ink... makes you think fast, stay on your toes, and build confidence with correct decisions!
