I sketch almost every day in addition to any other creative effort that I might have the privilege of doing. Most of these are done in direct ink, all are from direct observation of life. They were determined to be finished when I ran out of time, or the situation had changed to such an extent that the subject was no longer observable. I did not do these sketches with Urban Sketchers guidelines in mind, as I have just recently learned of the organization. I will post the images that most closely fit their guidelines on their sites, but here I will be more inclusive. My interests have been orientated toward sketching people. Recently I have become more interested in not just portraiture, or the human form, but in their surroundings, and how they occupy those surroundings.
