Dear Mischa and Paul

I have tried a couple of the Bargue plates a couple of times but have found my concentration goes all too quickly. I can only manage about 20 minute sessions before I get bored or distracted.

I lost my job two weeks ago and am re-arranging my art space to start doing the plates again. I have attached Plate 1-14 and 60 that I have completed but am going to go back and start from Plate 1-4 where I left off from last time.

I have already noticed a big change in 'seeing' and expect to 'see' more when I 'do' more Bargue. I am also fighting with my inability to concentrate which causes me to lose faith in finishing all of the exercises. I know if I can complete more I will learn more. I just get so bored with the slowness of it all.
