A very old character doodle I found. This was from a time when I worked in call center. There were times when there were no calls coming in. During these lulls, my thoughts would start to wander, often to cute stuff or to how to best destroy humanity. These were a couple of ideas I played with. I really like Light Boy. #fromthearchives #doodles #pendoodles https://www.instagram.com/p/B7UMNkslWAS/?igshid=1ht2vryxoz724

Live model session at the Philadelphia Sketch Club thus past Saturday. (@philasketchclub, @philadelphiasketch) Model: Heather =====

1) Col-Erase (app. 1.5 hours)

2) Conte on newsprint (20-30 minutes)

3) & 4) Ballpoint on newsprint (<20 minutes)

Do other artists/creative types ever have an issue of knowing when to stop or what you have is good enough?

There are times where I feel if I am not drawing every single lashes or every freckle, I’m not putting in enough work.
