Homage - Portrait Sketch
As I have no access to a live model at present, I thought I would get the juices going with a homage to one of my favourite artists, Annigoni. This was inspired by one of his drawings. The paper should have been smoother to capture the half-tones I was trying to emulate and the photography isn't that wonderful either. Next time, maybe.

2020 - First Sketches
These are the first three sketches of 2020.
They were done quickly without much fuss as all I wanted to experience was the use of these new tools for drawing; water soluble chalks which are just superb and lots of fun. I am not posting these because I like them, although there are some interesting marks in each work. I am posting them because I want to get back into the discipline of recording what I draw and sketch throughout the year without being strategic about posting my best work. It's all going to be out there in 2020; good, bad and wholly indifferent.
