Concentration

This guy was deep in reading a printout, his earnest focus in contrast to his summery day-out clothes.


He turned the papers over, started back at the beginning again, maybe this time it would stick, or make sense, or come together.



But the sun blazed outside, and those sandals had a higher purpose.

  1. It looks like the poor fella was getting bad news... and he's so not dressed for it.

  2. It does a bit. I think it was work related, something he had to know before a big meeting kind of stuff.

  3. What a brilliant sequence. The angle looks like you where standing right next to him looking down!

  4. I was. It was a mark of how engrossed he was that he didn't notice me scribbling away... and I'm not subtle at the moment. My current sketch book is BRIGHT ORANGE.

  5. Ha, brilliant. Or maybe he did notice you and that's what the uncomfortable hand gestures are all about.

  6. Maybe, but I would say no. I know when people know they are being sketched. There is a subtle change in how they are.
