Welcome



“It is in the order to really see, to see ever deeper, ever more intensely, hence to be fully aware and alive, that I draw what the Chinese call ‘The Ten Thousand Things’ around me. Drawing is the discipline by which I constantly rediscover the world.

I have learned that what I have not drawn, I have never really seen, and that when I start drawing an ordinary thing, I realize how extraordinary it is”.

(Frederick Franck, ‘The Zen of Seeing’).

65- Burt Lancaster


Today's daily sketch/painting is from the Crimson Pirate, a film I always loved to watch as a kid which starred Burt Lancaster, another boyhood hero! This took me a bit longer than planned probably around 3 hours and was painted from start to finish using Photoshop.
