from real life

today i sat at an old desk chair while outside one of portland's fine local roasters and stared at a clean little honda motorcycle. as i sat there rubbing my sore thighs (we just climbed to the top of mount st. helens a few days prior) it got me pondering if i still had the knack to draw something realistic or if i had worked myself into an abstract cartoon pit from which escape was daunting.

turns out i still got it! at least a little bit.

after i finished the sketch i was hoping i'd bump into the owner of the bike, so that i might give him my fine scribblings, but alas no rider to be found. this is good news for anyone viewing the the site cause had i givin the image away you'd never have the opportunity to see it, which would have been a same. right?

so, enjoy this and another sketch i did a week prior in the same spot of some faces. if only people were a bazillion faces how long it would take, but how entertaining it would be to draw them.
