drawing as mindfulness practice

Drawing the same thing over and over, a left hand in all manageable positions, is a concentration and mindfulness practice in both seeing and media manipulation.

I always notice something, whether it's how difficult this hard charcoal pencil is to erase, or something new about how finger skin wrinkles.

Hard charcoal pencil on 70# paper. It got these pencils at Barnes & Noble, cheap and about 20 to the box. They are great to work with!
