Some more cafe sketches from the past few weeks.

Sketches from the bookstore cafe and the zoo.

Zombies

I got to draw zombies at work last week. Pretty cool. I didn't have enough time to do much with the background. C'est la vie.

Cafe Day

I went to another cafe today. Apparently, sketching in public gives people free license to talk to you. Which normally is cool; it's nice to meet new people. Sometimes. It loses it's appeal when some old guy starts trying to convince you that the U.S. government is actively trying to reduce the world's population to 500 million people, and that 9-11 was a part of the plan. That's when you know it's time to go.

Anyway, here's what I got before I was interrupted.

Somebody at work reminded me of the Ninja Turtles the week before last, and I drew during a bout of nostalgia. Not the best, but it was fun to do.

I went to a cafe this morning and did a bit of sketching. I need to do that more often. It's not easy capturing gestures and proportions and form when your subjects are oblivious to your efforts. I think these sketches reflect the difficulty I was having. Which is, of course, exactly why I need to do it more often.

And finally, some figure gestures from photo ref, courtesy of the Art Models books. I'm trying to improve my ability to capture form and gesture quickly and efficiently. Which also goes back to sketching from life. Gotta keep practicing!

I'd like to end the year on a positive and productive note. Kind of give myself a little momentum going into 2012. So here's one last post for the year. Nothing fancy, just stretching a little toward a few ideas I've been exploring. If I can keep any kind of rhythm going, there'll be more on that soon.

And yes, I suck at drawing horses. But it's still a whole lot of fun.

So it's been a really long time. I'm actually having a hard time believing the year is basically over. I meant to do a better job keeping this thing current this year. Guess I have to try again.

Anyway, here's a bunch of random doodles done over the past week. I hope to have a few more polished images soon.
