A bit of practice...

before I get to work on a pastel painting.  These have helped me become more confident in my lines, therefore my drawing comes faster.  I'm digging it.  :)

(02-13-2011.  Some blind drawing and a bit of focusing on the negative shapes lifting my pen as little as possible.)

You're stuck with me again, as after my adventures last night I was a bit too lazy to go out to the coffee shop or take a train ride today.

The adventure...trekking to the top of the Sears (Willis) Tower via several different elevators and several hours of standing around.  But that view was worth it...
