I Knew It Was Going To Be A Great Day

When Denny Doran walked in at 9:00 am.  Of course, he hadn't slept since I last saw him at the pool table in the Slip Inn much earlier that morning. But it made me very happy to have him drawing in my studio again. Denny used to run a Wednesday life drawing session years ago. It was always a sensational atmosphere and I adopted many things from his sessions into mine. Lisa brought a friend, Sal - thanks for coming! - to extend a three week streak of newcomers. Always exciting to meet new artists. Jeff was back, James, John, David, and arriving at 4....Robert! The last few weeks, we've been very light on the bad jokes. Aralyn (morning model) thought she was at the wrong studio due to the lack of terrible puns and goofy banter. Then that afternoon Robert arrived for the first time in a while. And we made up for three weeks in just two hours. Special thanks to Danielle, who modeled in the afternoon on short notice and put up with our definition of humor. Here is a drawing Denny did of Liza at the studio a few years back, Liza at Thacker Studio. It is on display at Norwood-Flynn gallery (www.norwoodflynngallery.com):    Jeff Cancelosi:        Don Thacker:    (in progress) John Kuehne:     David Terry:    Robert Opel:
