Still Strokin'

This is a drawing I did today during the commute. I showed the man after I completed the drawing and he was blown away by how fast and on point the likeness captured.

Asian man looking out transit window

Pulled this one off during todays commute. It was an Asian man sitting directly in front of me. I know he saw the beginning but then I tilted my book more towards me so he didn't see the final outcome and still not sure if he knew I was drawing him.

Drawing like a Navy Seal...

A drawing of one of my high school students at EOSA. Been pushing the pen like a Navy Seal lately (lots of "Drawing Training" sessions)... I will be uploading lots more work soon. I'm trying to break through to my next level in drawing. Thanks for following my progress, viewing my work and continue to leave your comments - they are extremely inspirational.
