Another drawing from the NYRO rehearsals. The woodwind players do not like to be drawn (as opposed to the violins and celli, who practically do backflips when they feel the artist’s attention). I caught this guy hiding behind a column, which is funny, because he kind of looks like a column. I got him to relax a little bit by pretending to draw the altar behind him, though he clearly remained suspicious. I am still hopeful that one day I’ll draw the entire brass-, and woodwind section. (They tend to be tucked behind the strings, which makes them tricky to just casually “catch”.)
