    Recent work

    I've been waiting for far to long to post something here in the finally finished section. I've been around the forum for sometime now and it's been intresting to see all the people and friends who have I have been learning along side grow and get better. And the most fantastic part is to see how everyone has been growing in there own direction, many talk about strong influences, I've had mine, but give them a few years and you'll see how people move in there own directions and find themselves and their intrests and what was called influences has become something melted down into something new and beautiful.

    I remember going the the workshop in Prague, hmm... that was some years ago. I meet Carl Dobsky, I was very facinated by what he knew. And I felt that I really wanted to learn how to draw well. I asked him where I could study nature in that way and train my eye. He gave me a name, Daniel Graves. And at that time I didn't know that Daniel Graves was the founder of the Florence Academy of Art. Well, I sent him a mail, asked if I could study with him and he directed me to his school.
    And from there it went, it took me some years before I felt good enough to apply. And now I'm here.

    These projects are from my third year at the Florence Academy of Art.
    Thought I'd post the draiwng I did to study and learn to know the subject before painting.

    Thanks for the comments guys.

    eeric: Hej Eric. Kul att du skriver, mailet du skrev råkade försvinna i en mailbox rensning, sen glömde jag bort det. hur går allt i Stockholm?

    cotta: Thanks, these are ranging from everything to two hours to long poses done during a period of five weeks. The longer you spend the more time you get to resolve all the problems and more solutions how to work them out will appear in you mind.
