Sketchbook Faces

Here are a couple of pages from my latest sketchbook. I just finished spring term and its nice to sketch more for myself again. A sketchbook can be a really great place to relax.

Gesture Drawings

Lady Magenta

In the first colored sketch I did I colored her skin magenta. Thus the name. Just having some fun.

Public Bawler

I did this for Joe Olson's drawing class. The topic was "Pretty Awkward." I think loud, hysterical public bawling qualifies. I really wish I would have had time to hint at a crowd of people. In an earlier sketch I had a group of kids sitting on the bench next to her leaning away with one of them offering her a sucker. Another idea was to have her leaning on some total stranger. I might do a redraw over the next few months.
