How many of you have painted from memory?
The first time I tried, I was in a Marc Hanson Workshop, June 2015.
I hated disliked it (intensely).
BUT -
I think it is good to do and I shall do it more. Maybe even on this challenge - yikes.
"The development of the power of seeing
and the power to retain in the memory that which is essential
and to make record and thus test out
how true the seeing and the memory have been
is the way to happiness."
