…or the Academy Awards. I think I may have started a tradition for myself by drawing while watching the Oscars! I did it last year, and this year I thought, why not again. Mostly I love looking at the classic styles and the not-so-classic gowns that the stars are skillfully presenting to the sea of cameras. It really is fascinating to watch. What a parade! Here’s one drawing from the night. To see more of my drawings of the event, I’ll be posting them shortly here. -Despina

here is a drawing I made a few weeks back at the Dalvero Academy open house. Very few things have been more important to me in my career than drawing from the model. Thanks Dalvero!

Not sure if this guy’s name is Leo, but I’ll just assume. I’m a leo and have always had a fondness for lions. I did this piece at the Bronx Zoo in NY.
