I think of pencil drawing more as therapy than an exercise in patience (most of the time) :-) I enjoy looking at Leslie's fairy book, too! http://www.lesliehawes.com/ Thank you, Jo.

I remember this. It is so beautiful. You artists that work in pencil amaze me. I have not the patience, as you well know. I will just keep looking and dreaming....... I still have one of Leslie's fairy books and I get it out and look once in a while. :) Ah, Regina. I remember this. It is so beautiful. You artists that work in pencil amaze me.
