It is hard to be motivated when you have a concussion. Today I felt eager to do things for the first time since the accident. I now have a blasting headache. Also a storm is coming. Well, I want to get this up so you can see again how I begin. I did the drawing over the past few days and I had done the imprimatura on the canvas so it was ready. I turned on the air conditioner in my studio and put in three hours work. I have always enjoyed the beginnings of a portrait. The next session will add the brights and the skin. That is all for now. I must get something for this headache. Shalom
