A Sketch From...

(07-14-2011....the TRAIN!  Really?  Say it ain't so! Yup. Two pens, a sketchbook, and a pretty smooth ride until we got into downtown and slowed way down.  Go figure that slowing down made it MORE bumpy.)

But fun was had by all. Well, I had fun.  And they don't count because they weren't even paying attention to me....

Pops

(07-13-2011. Yup. My pops. typical Pops pose. I like the thicker line usage here, as opposed to the previous one, where the dark line was directly on top of the thinner line.  I'm thinking I'd like to go and take a look at some other artist's sketches [I'm fascinated with a few different artists.] to get a grip on having more fun. Get some ideas and see if they translate into "cyndi" language.)

166th post. Loosening up on the black...

(07-12-2011. I had two pens.  One finer than the other.  I did good with the thin one. The thick one is where it went south. I'ma have to learn to either block it in, or let it go and be more loose.  *shrug*)

Walk awaaaay!

(07-11-2011. Not a front view, but hey... we don't always look at people from the front anyway, huh?)

guardian

(07-10-2011. The guardian outside my door. Well, the lesser of the two scary ones... the other one looks like the devil. This one has flowers in her hair. I'm not sure how she's guarding my door, but you never know....)

163rd post...mmmmm...pretzels.....

(07-09-2011. Pretzels are one of the best munchies if you happen to be out wandering around and hungry. Tell me it's not true. No weird dayglo orange cheese to wipe off the fingers onto the used to be clean pants, low in fat, very dip-able with all sorts of sauces. OH...the DRAWING.... yeh.  It's not REALLY mindblowing, but I do like it, as when I started I was sure this one was going to tank. But it turned out rather nicely for one of those odd poses...) Say it with me. YAY for lines!

Oh, I got another pen, and I'm breaking it in with this 'un. Ran outta ink in the last one...

162nd post... random lady

(07-09-2011. Yup. Random person. Living in a city is good for that....) ;-)
