2 profiles.

Another bloke's profile. Many questing lines.


This gets me thinking about where to take my sketching next. It points in a looser, more fluid direction.

Where as this one...


...implies more speed and a sort of brutalism, just chop it out, gouge it out of the paper. 

The pen as blade.

The pen as pick-axe.

The line as scar.

The start of something beautiful

Haven't been by for ages, but work load easing off now, so swinging by.

Was on the tube a while back, and this guy got into a conversation with a girl who had sat opposite, and there seemed to be an attraction, and I wondered if this was the start of the great love of their lives.

I would like to think so.



Can you feel the chemistry ?

Commuter and itch.

I have spent the afternoon, ( well a chunk of it ) replacing suspended ceiling tiles, that had fibre glass in them, and was sweaty and dirty, and am now itchy and scratchy, ( not the sadistic animated Simpson characters.... - although they should try ceiling tiles as a form of torture ) running the whole gamut today. The glamour of it all.

Urgh.

So a quick post as I have a few minutes. Sketched this commuter on the tube a while back, like the legs, always good when you get the legs right.


Ah, happy days, when I wasn't so damn ITCHY !!!

Going home to shower now.
