two three from the sketchbooks
Tina and the sun, ink and oil pastel on paper
Tara profile, ink on paper
Sarah, ink on paper
Sketch is a tricky word. It has connotations of speed and flippancy, as if it’s just slap-dash. Certainly the marks are usually done quickly, but to be successful it has to draw on experience, and experience only comes with time.
UPDATE: things usually come in threes...

I think it's got something to do with knowing where to MAKE the marks. Once you know that (and I don't, but you do!) then it can be done fast. I love both of these.
