A delightful evening watching Ukraine National Opera performing Carmen. My eyes were opened to the structure of many short narrative songs to tell the story, an ultimate realisation that an opera is what I think of as 'a concept album'; albeit one with acting, costumes, sets. Inspirational.
A full day drawing out Meals of Warm Spring. Quickly done, one of my fastest days of drawing, mainly because I have little time to spare, so worked constantly. I'm also composing the picture as I draw; the idea sketch was not very detailed. This mustn't take long.
