I recently took a drawing from Frank Zampardi here in the Villages. Now I have attempted drawing classes twice and failed both times but this time I was determined. I learned that I can draw but I don't enjoy drawing. As an artist is is something I need to do from time to time so I am glad I took the class. Drawing does not come easily for me but I did shut up that little voice inside my head who kept saying, "How can you call yourself an artist and not draw."

The napkin holder was something I choose to draw. Frank made me do it several times before he was okay with it. Next I am taking a pastel class from him.

So today, Thursday I am thankful for all the wonderful art classes available here in the Villages.
