I am SO surprised,
but after #1week100people I am choosing to draw more peeps…
I’ve just never been interested in sketching people before!
AND, I’m intent on finishing my Hahnemühle Cappuccino Sketchbook.
So imagine my surprise when Sketchbook Skool’s Danny Gregory
had a lunchtime drawing mug shots exercise?!
Fun, 2 minutes per image, and fit into my busy sKedule
(see how I did that?) for a break to sketch!
BTW, I knew that Danny slipped a mugshot of himself in there…
The woman looks sweeter than she is… I am sure she had a tough life.
I found myself making up ideas about who these thugs were, really…
The one under Danny looked innocent —
so maybe a serial killer?
Sorry I didn’t give France Van Stone a better amount of paper, what was I thinking?
Love this thug guy, a mad scientist!
I did the sketches within the 2 minutes, but have to admit that
I wanted to hit them with the waterbrush after… Robert Oster Melon Tea here,
is such a beautiful sketching color.
Same, sketched fast, then hit it with water…

A couple from our virtual walk…
Gargoyles are people too, and this guy is watching the Paris lovers.
Last, a woman from Sketchy, Dancerwoman.
More will come!
I am working in the Hahnemühle Cappuccino Sketchbook.
Review to come soon!

My granddaughter is interested in drawing. Every time I visit, I always do a quick sketch of her while she is not looking. Children are sure flexible and capturing her in her odd stances can be challenging. I love your sketches.
Once when I was on jury duty, I started sketching people. They often got up and moved because they caught my glance. Then I started sketching them from the back. It is amazing what is revealed when we observe people in a different way.
Lovely post.
