Medium - Oil, Size - 8X10 inches, Date - 3-7-24 This painting is drawn from directly observing a photo of me sitting cross-legged on the carpeted floor of my home art studio. Sunlight streams through a nearby window, casting shadows across the room. I am wearing an urban "uniform" of a hoodie and athletic pants and am engrossed in sketching on his sketchpad. My brow is furrowed in concentration as I move the pencil over the paper. My easel is off to the side, and art supplies like my brushes, paints, and pencils are scattered during this creative process. The tone is quiet focus and artistic passion.
