Today, I spent a couple of hours (as per a drawing class assignment) drawing heads. I was at a coffeeshop earlier (yeah, there were a couple open this family food day) and all I had to draw with– other than a thick sharpie– was a papermate ballpoint pen. Something that I will do thumbnails with, but little more. I drew quiet Mike’s portrait– he was a good sitter– and I liked it. I liked the pen and the texture and the smoothness of it once I got started. I liked it, so fluid, and I told it where to go. I went home and listened to The Slip and other musicians of that ilk and drew for a while.
