I don't like Mondays...


... but I have always liked this drawing.  Cody was an excellent model for us back when we used to meet at MSU-B, the local university here.  She was great to work with and I usually got some very nice drawings from our sessions.  
  It's always hard when a good model moves on whether they just lose their feel for the job, move away or have outside influences.  When you find someone, and our group has had many wonderful models over the years, to see them go (or usually, just never see them again after the last session) is very difficult.  You get comfortable with them and the art usually reflects an understanding of the particular individual rather than a mannequin like representation of the subject.  
  I guess it is like any relationship, enjoy it while it lasts because one never knows when the end is coming.
