Middle of the week and the middle of the month. Fifteenth day in a row! This is another one of those images I've been meaning to draw for years.

This is a drawing of myself, from a photo that I didn't know was being taken...in which I unintentionally turned away.
It's a little loose, but it's also a little late.

I went ahead and drew Saturday's drawing (today's) while I was still up from Friday. Long day ahead. This drawing is on 6"x9" vellum paper, on top of Bristol. Andrea also took this original photo.

This is Thursday's drawing posted after midnight like yesterdays, but I haven't slept yet so am not counting the "day" as done just because the calendar says so. In case you're curious, I drew this from a photograph I took inside a church in Szentgal, Hungary, a very small village nearby Veszprem.

This is a 7"x7" pen drawing, referencing a photo from a time I lived with my best friend and probably read too much Bukowski. Drink then spin. One week complete!

I may want to re-consider this image as a color painting; I don't think pen quite lives up to the original. All those lines in the building were a doozy to draw out! Thanks to my friend Destiny, for letting me use her photograph.

Drawing of a double exposure - a self portrait from several months ago. Kind of a head-spinner to draw. Matches this day.

Picked an image with teeth, upturned nose, mouth, ear, hair, clothing, and heavy cast shadow on a day I worked a 9 hour shift. Saturday is for staying busy.

I am doing another drawing-a-day series for this month of August. Any feedback is appreciated, the pressure to complete is ON.
Here's the first drawing, a 5x7" pen drawing on bristol of a child.
It's of my niece, actually. She's a twin, but hopefully those who know my family can decipher which girl it is. Guessing game.

Took a little break from this, but am resuming the series for another week! I want to devote more time to projects that cannot be completed in a day. SO, here's today's drawing - a scribbly rendition of my niece sitting over a book in a heavily shaded area, but distracted by something.
