From the Drawing Board

Just a couple of random recent samplings from the drawing table. I'm scribbling like mad these days. I'm in finishes (watercolors) on a picture book, finished drawings for a 160 pp poetry book, and sketch revisions for another poetry book. Drawing these days with whatever makes an interesting mark. Pencil, sharpie, but mostly bamboo pen. Bamboo (essentially it's like dipping a stick in ink and pulling it across paper) is horribly frustrating, but when it's good, it's so good. What matters... keep the line loose, fresh, varied, and beautifully ugly. If that makes sense...
