As someone that loves to (pencil/charcoal) draw and desperately wants to learn to paint, how was doing the same image (subject and pose) for you? I am probably very strange, but I feel that if I draw an image I absolutely cannot draw that image again (and I think it is more about "interest" for me, but the feeling is so strong it really affects the quality of my work). Does anyone else feel this way? Anyway, I really admire not just the extreme high quality of your work, but your ability to redo an image.
