I’m sure
A quick and heavy-handed sketch of the hands of my wife and me on our wedding day. Saw this in a photo when I was looking through shots ahead of our recent anniversary and thought it would be a good exercise. Used 2B and 6B pencils in a Moleskin sketchbook for this drawing. Here is…

Hand and thumb
Another Zoom portrait using racing green instead of the typical sepia. I like the way the green turned out and picked this snapshot as I thought the inclusion of the hand was interesting. Turned out pretty good I think. Progress. 📈 This piece was done using Derwent Inktense watercolors and water pens, along with a…

Coloring on the table
Drawing of my son sitting on top of our table coloring one of those giant coloring pages. Just a quick pencil sketch in my sketchbook.

Keep smiling
Keeping the Zoom portraits going with another one using a deep red instead of the usual sepia. Done using Derwent Inktense watercolors and water pens, along with a Uninball Eye Micro pen for the outlines. Smiles go a long way. Keep smiling all. 😃

Cap on (figure #73)
Continuing with the Zoom portraits. This is one of someone looking at another screen and I liked the angle, and the hat, as a nice change of pace from the standard front view.

Energy (figure #70)
The trampoline is good for a few things, namely getting energy out of the kids and getting some funny pics along the way. I was going to do this with all brush pens, which I still will, but ended up using my fine pen instead.

Slightly amused (figure #69)
Keeping the Zoom portrait series going with a coworker looking slightly amused at something that was said. This one is a larger format (A4) than previous portraits (A5) mostly because I ordered the wrong size replacement. The extra space was pretty nice to work with though so happy accident I think.

Self-portrait (figure #68)
Another one for the Zoom series, but this one is me. I don’t do self-portraits often enough as I always find them oddly enjoyable but don’t tend to like the thought of staring at myself so I tend to not do them. They are great practice though and I should do more of them.
