Hi Lon,
You may have noticed that I didn't mention the CD on the thread in the drawing critique section. That's because it won't play on my brand new iMac. It comes up in Power Point, but all I get for lesson 1 is something that looks like "Lavender Mist" by Jackson Pollack! It may be some setting on the computer that needs to be changed, but I haven't had a chance to play with it. I just thought I'd pass that along in case you find that people running Macs with OS X have problems.
The other thing is that I've had a hard time finding Staedler 4B leads. I found some labelled 4H, but since I don't understand the nomenclature (neither did the clerk in the art supply store) and they were $12 for a little box, I didn't get any. It doesn't matter for now because I've switched to drawing in charcoal, but I figured they'd be a common item. Is there some specialty source for those leads? Probably a dumb question, but I'm ignorant!
Linda,
That's a brilliant book suggestion!
