    Follow the direction of your nose.... when activated.... for it then truly knows what to uncover to make current sense of the world. Follow then any sensation to sniff in the source of it All.

  4. You did a great job. I haven't yet been able to master drawing a nose when the face is upturned. It always turns out looking more like a pig than anything else ....

    I'm captivated by the drips.... eyes gently gaze upward, drip drip dripping downward. She's wonderful.

  16. This is wonderful Tammie. I always have so much trouble drawing faces from this angle (I tend to avoid it altogether!) but you have managed it brilliantly! Your work is always filled with such serene-ness.

  17. Oh, she's stunning, Tammie! I love how freely you've applied the magenta paint. Sublime is definitely the right word. :)
