His “How to Draw Robots” book was due back to the school library today so I knew we’d be doing one last robot.
I did not wake up with the same energy that I had yesterday so when he picked this robot knight, I gave an internal sigh. It was just about as complex as yesterday’s robot man. I wondered if my low mood would affect the outcome. To my surprise, it did not. I worked for over 30 min with the Extra Fine Tip Sharpie again. I like how it gives me more control. I worked deliberately, but felt rushed toward the end. I had to draw the lower half of his body in half the time I did his upper half.
I was disappointed that I hadn’t left enough room for the full sword; but, I am happy that the angles and proportions came out pretty good. It’s not quite as tight as yesterday’s but it still looks cool.
I ignored him and packed up our stuff to go. After all my work, it was a little disappointing that he was critical. I could have used some good will today to boost my spirits.
