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’).

67- Richard Pryor

I wasn't happy with yesterday's sketch so I thought I'd redo it today with the aid of Photoshop. I used the original sketch but added a lot more darks which I find is a lot easier to do digitally. Richard Pryor was definitely one of my heroes of comedy during my early to mid teens, especially when he was teamed up with Gene Wilder.... I suddenly feel like watching 'Stir Crazy' again!
