When I took Lynda Barry's workshop, the one where she taught us the beautiful technique of writing down 10 images from our day, she said it would take 30 minutes to do the assignment. That's 10 minutes to pace around trying to avoid doing it, 10 minutes to actually write down the images, and 10 minutes to freak out that you actually did it.
That's how I feel about vacation. There's vacation, then there's the week after where you're between two worlds, amazed at what you experienced and not quite ready to be back. This is a different drawing than the last one. Sometimes I like to take long poses and break them up into short ones, to learn something new each time. Our model is not quite convinced that vacation is over either.
