I participate in an online drawing group, in which a member suggests to the group a weekly subject for sketching. This week it is glasses. (Why did I think my 20/15 eyes were impervious to aging?? They weren't. Of course. These eyeglasses work well because they are frameless. Others I've tried make me feel hemmed in.

Hi Laureann,
what beautiful sketches you have created. I knew you had a real talent, and see that all the time you have been spending (away from mua) has definitely paid off for you. Gorgeous work.

Hi
Another great job, you are so good at adding the 3-D to a watercolor. I am impressed.

Ha, glasses are always my nightmare. I hate drawing people with glasses on! Nice sketch, though. The big case looks almost like a giant orange butterfly...

color is such a wonderful thing. (that comment is either inane or very, very deep) I love the whimsy of the case's orange and purple vs. the all-business angularity of the glasses. so nice, L.
