Candid Sketches

Drawing people in public is a fun challenge because you’ve only got a few seconds to nail their form before they walk past or shift position. I think the figures that result are more convincing than many I’ve drawn from photographs because they’re based on natural poses rather than those affected for the camera or the studio.

It’s refreshing to leave faces blank for a change.

I colored this picture on the computer. Give it a click to look at a few other recent sketches.
