Persistence...yes, I wish I had it

 
The truth is I intended to have posted my third portrait drawing to share some time within the last three weeks. Yet, I'm here, with nothing of the sort. Persistence...yes, I wish I had it.

Not only do I have a half finished drawing stashed away in my desk draw, I have a novel that's barely just begun sitting as an ornament on my beside. Elizabeth Kostova's first novel and international best seller, The Historian. I was very much excited to "sink my teeth into it" when I ordered it about four months ago, but, my abstinence from reading novels, for-my-own-good and substitution for long winded textbooks dampened my love for reading entirely. What a pity, when I thought I had found a lasting hobby. I think I can say the same for my drawing...but, I hope this boredom is only a passing trend.
