Sketchbook Portrait- A Man With Many Stories

watercolor, charcoal, & graphite

I went to the library this morning and challenged myself  to a search for a face and a fast sketch.  I found this man but started reading the article and almost ran out of time to draw. I think the portrait came out a bit awkward but I do like some of the lines that I did the quickest and didn't fuss over.  My aim is to reach a level where I am accurately catching that certain something about someone with lines that have a lively feel to them.  Practice, practice, practice.

I finished the cigar box! Can't wait to try it out, hopefully tomorrow, but certainly Thursday.
