Random Sketches

After spending the last 12 years or so in the health care industry, studying sciences, I decided it was time to get back into the sketching. Below are some of my attempts at sketching with any dedicated regularity. I'm hoping that I will look back on these and see how much I've grown and how much better I've become :\

Latest "sketch book" is a case for an ipad mini (maybe?) That I found for $3 at the thrift store. It holds paper that's 4.5" by 6" or so. I filled it with all sorts of scrap paper and watercolor paper and this way, I can pull the sheets out if they don't turn out, and so far, this freedom keeps me from being too puckered-up when drawing. The ability to pull sheets out and throw them out paradoxically keeps me from having to do this--because I'm more free and unconcerned with how the drawing turns out, I can loosen up and just sketch. So far, I see a slight improvement each day, and that's all this exercise was intended to do.
