Review, refresh
I first viewed Danny Gregory’s video, The Art of Breakfast, a few years ago. It was instrumental in motivating me to take up the practice of keeping an illustrated journal. Every so often, I review it— to refresh my memory, pare the discipline back to its essentials: the page, the line, the wash, this moment, this place.
P.S. I have to laugh, remembering the first time I saw PG Tips scroll through the list of materials at the end; I thought it referred to the pen nibs, rather than the tea.
It takes a real artist who just wants to draw his breakfast! He probably doesn't have kids or animals wanting their breakfast, too!
