I've been trying to do more sketching these days.I tend to over crosshatch. Tonight I wanted to focus on my lines and flow. I really want to work on being conservative with line. It's a continuous struggle. I found the farmer in a local newspaper article and Jack Black in Rolling Stone magazine.

I finally found my Le Pen!

These sketches were done on office note pads while on the phone discussing web edits with the 4th floor engineers. I guess you can say I have had cranes on my mind lately.
