I wish I could say that this oil pastel sketch came from life, or came from a drawing from life. But, it didn't. My husband was flicking through the channels and I had a one-half second glimpse of someone reading a book. I don't know if they had any wine or what color the book was and, actually, now that I think of it, I'm not certain it was a three-quarter view - might have been a profile. Reading a book is one of my favorite pastimes, (right now, it's The Great Upheaval by Jay Winik). I just started scribbling and this is the result. It's on 9 x 12" Colourfix black paper. Thanks so much for visiting my blog!

I love to read about the history of the artwork. It is amazing how in a split second glance captured and scrap the idea, may inspire you to such a beautiful picture. You have my great compliment.
Connie - you are a super duper multi-tasker! And quite extraordinary capture! :-) nina
