I did the sketchcrawl solo last Saturday and ended up meeting all sorts of people - Canadian med students off to India, mothers who invited me to Bible studies, indie rock singers... I really like your sketches - side and rear portraits are so unusual and so catch a different side of a person. Isn’t it odd how sketching seems to be a way to start conversations?

I went to a great blues bar near the Coliseum over the weekend and sat and sketched the band for hours. I was pretty crappy at first, but after I started warming up, the sketches actually became recognizable and the musicians obviously weren't bothered by my staring at them. I had to be a little more sneaky when it came to sketching the patrons, but luckily no one noticed. It’s funny you mention this now, because I just started doing that over the past few weeks.
