This drawing dates from my only formal training in art. I was lucky (and connected) enough to study art intensively at the Boston University Art School summer session at Tanglewood. This place was an arts center devoted mostly to music and the Boston Symphony summer concerts, but the other arts were represented too. We students went to class every day for about two and a half months and drew all the time. This young lady, named Clara, was a fellow student. This little portrait is one of my early attempts at colored pencil work. I didn't have the hundreds of colors I have now.
Colored pencils on sketchbook page, 5" x 7", summer 1972.
