Sketchbook

Hey guys, sorry I've been a bit out of the circle, work has been crazy -- lots of overtime. I have been working in my sketchbook, so here are a few scans from that to show that I am still in the art biz. Some of the local musicians like my sketch stuff and I got a really nice write up on myspace at www.myspace.com/bongosteve. So that's the news from Toledo, hope you like everything.

Beautiful!!! I especially love the second one. You're really using shape and design a lot, they look great. They remind me a little of Gary Kelley, I think because of the cafe theme. Great job!!!

Erika, these are really cool. Do you do them all in one sitting? How long are you spending on these? What type of pen are you using? They are really nice, I'm glad you are keeping up with the sketchbook stuff.

I'm using a Pentel R.S.V.P. pen. I like that it gives me a nice range of values and lots of control . . but I'm a control freak, so it suit me. ;) Most of the pages are collages of a sitting, but some are compiled over several visits if nothing fits the composition. Usually I complete 1 to 1.5 spreads per visit,
