Writing and Reading



My portrait of an old man, done with pencil on standard sketch paper. I'm hoping to enter this in our yearly art show at the college. Very happy with the way it turned out, I like that the skin looks like cloth.
Hope everyone is well. I've been reading Pride and Prejudice and Little Women. I love Little Women and highly recommend it. I've also been writing a monster of an essay on Middlemarch, which still needs loads more work, so wish me luck.

It does look really good.
Will you be coming up north at all during break?

Good Luck! Though I don't really think you need it...

LITTLE WOMEN!

I think that was the first book that made me want to be an English major, somewhere in the back of my head, even though I didn't know what that was. But I remember swinging on the playground in 4th grade, reading it. This is not to say you are at a 4th grade reading level. That book is timeless. SIGH.
