Feeling Good Looking Blue

Yesterday we had Fall Training for the FIDM Speakers' Bureau at the Wilshire Grand Hotel in Downtown L.A. I wore a dress I got at one of my recent Goodwill trips. You can't really tell, but it has little black oblong polka dots on it. My daughter really likes this dress. She said it's the same thing they're selling at Urban Outfitters. It's probably from the early '80s and colorful! Yay. Unfortunately some of the pictures are a little blurry but you get the idea..

I got to see one of my favorite people, Nancy Riegelman. She is a sketching teacher at FIDM and a very talented artist as well. Not to mention, one of the sweetest and coolest ladies out there. She said she was going to check out my blog. Hi, Nancy!

Nancy is also the author of 9 Heads: A Guide To Drawing Fashion which is used all over the world as a text book for fashion classes and schools.

Nancy taught us how to make the 9 head croquis (kro-kee). Here's mine:

I added hair and a face and some clothes. Trying to keep this blog PG.

I linked this to Thursdays Are For Thrifters by the way. Check it out.
