What's that? Back up a step: what's Pure Contour drawing? Well, it's the kind of drawing your drawing teacher probably had you do - and in retrospect seems like most drawing teachers had you do and never knew why they had you do it. Getting back to the basics: Modified Pure Contour in gesture and in a caricature: Making the case drawing Japan's Prime minister Pretty cool group! So I think we all have more in common than you might think.

What I've discovered is that the majority of you are multitalented, multitasking, multifaceted artists, writers, painters, singers, poets, actors - along with having a "day time" profession. It may work out that I'll be doing both - but the blog will go well beyond just doing caricatures. Yep, I'm looking at using the blog format in place of ezines and if that's the case, I sure want to talk about more than drawing. I truly do want to see you learn to draw and learn to draw caricatures. If things get too wild and I just can't get the 'zines out then they're going to be late. It's possible I may discontinue regular ezines - but not before I do my best to fulfill the obligation those of you whom just signed up saw advertised (I'm allowed a few every-other-month issues though :-). So here's the deal: I've got a couple other irons in the fire that are starting to require more and more attention and there's only one of me. After doing the drawing for today's though, I had so much fun I want to keep doing them! But I know how things will pile up again. I do however have to reiterate something I said in an e-mail - and later posted at the sales page - that ezines will occasionally be "gappy".

After 8 years I guess that's understandable.

In fact so long I found it pretty hard to get back in front of the computer. Once and for all getting you drawing faces and caricatures: This newsletter is reproduced here by courtesy of.
