Day 1751: Lit! Not too happy with tonight's result. The anatomy didn't quite come together and I think the values were a little flat. Still, I have a busy two days ahead of me so I'm not going to stress to much on these! I need finish my writing contest entry by tomorrow night!

Qualor più vive in pace
sicuro chi v’adora,
sorga uno sdegno allora
da facile cagion;
e quella fiamma fervida,
che per voi l’arde e l’agita,
più viva e più sollecita
cresca col suo timor.

Innocenzo Frugoni
“L’isola amorosa” (1758)
