SMUDGES + LINES

CHARCOAL SKETCH

Sketching here and there as samples for my Thursday
evening drawing classes at UCSD Extension.
Fortunate to have such a small, intimate and fun-loving 
group of adults!

This past week they drew each other in 12-minutes spurts.
Interesting to see their developing individualistic styles! 

 This is a 10-minute sketch of myself as a prepared sample.

    Susan, This is stunning. I love the lost edges, the delicate feel of the portrait.....I have "sketch envy".
