Day two hundred and thirty: Today’s sketch is based on a lithography by Picasso that I admired this morning, but I’m afraid that aside from general areas of light and dark, my version doesn’t look much like the original. Picasso’s is beautifully printed and looks like a rich soft pencil drawing with thick, carefully placed lines. Mine was built up in multiple layers of white and black over gray until I was satisfied the picture was presentable. I decided to add my signature where Picasso put his, which somehow makes it seem even better.
