Sketchbook 01/25/10


I had the intent to do another coffee house sketch at Balzac's in the Distillery district. However, my intent shifted abit and instead of doing a "finished" piece, I returned to my sketchbook.

I had a great time and I found after doing a tighter style, returning to a smaller dimension and the cheaper paper of my sketchbook, really loosened me up. I really like the end result of this.

  1. I thought Ezra's Pound was wonderful - one of my faves actually! - but I understand that feeling of needing to do something looser. It's all good!

  2. Loose or tight, all of your styles seems to work out well!

  3. As well you should - it's great! And thanks for the invite! I should give constructive criticism more often - being nice gets me nowhere at all! :) Anyway, if - in my wildest dreams - I ever make it to Toronto, I will definitely take you up on it (so I can learn from the Master!) Thanks!

  6. Hi again, I tried to click on 'contact me' again, but it just automatically opens up the Mail program on my Mac, similar to outlook express I guess on a pc. Would you mind posting your hotmail address on here? Thank you very much . Stef Walker
