Sketches for Your Eyes Only























These are some drawings I've done in the last couple weeks.













































The Sharpie marker, with some graphite, i did last night in a rage of glory.




















































The simpler sketches (i.e. the baby, the hand, circle, etc.)
were done weeks ago.





























































You might have noticed I am rarely subtracting from the form and am primarily using addition to resolve my space.















I'm developing a relationship to my sketchbook, so when I have an idea, I can execute it without having to warm up to draw, i can just draw.



















The fat Sharpie let me lay down bold demanding lines without hesitation. I am very attracted to the mark that never leaves, once its on the page, you've got to deal with it.
















Please leave a comment and feel free to be as comfortably honest as you can.
