Don’t only practice your art, but force your way into its secrets, for it and knowledge can raise men to the divine.” ― Ludwig van Beethoven

I'm back from my first meeting with the professor and try to practice what I'm still lacking - drawing from life. I never really did drawings that weren't out of my imagination. It wasn't so exciting to me ... and another reason probably, you would be able to have a reference to my drawing, and be able to see flaws more? I don't know why exactly I never put much effort into it, but now I'll take this new challenge!

Here is a first update on what has happened. At the moment I try to train my eyes to draw what I see, not what I think should be there - and that's more difficult than is seems ;)
