I guess I did more philosophizing about the make-up of the human face than drawing it this time. I’ve been getting interested in matching the formal attributes of writing, like Cy Twombly, with those of my looser drawings.

First page of a brand-new Moleskine.
I’m getting better at drawing faces, even if I did draw the mouth of the woman on the right too deep, making her look a bit like Jack Nicholson’s Joker. Sorry, ma’am, but a few months ago you would have looked more like a “Simpsons” character. Trust me, this is better.

2009Jan 28tags: faces | practice | sketchesGot my sketchbook out finally to practice some faces. Ugh. The guy on the bottom right is the only one I really care for, and maybe the guy on the top, 2nd from the left. I used normal pencils, then sepia’d the image. (Rob’s flickr site.)
