In the summer of 2002 I decided I really needed to get back to drawing. In order to push through my usual bouts of self-doubt and procrastination I decided to use the cheapest materials I could (a $.99 9x12 newsprint sketchbook, charcoal pencils, and a kneaded eraser) and commit to filling the book as fast as I could. Two months later I had 50 pages of fast, fluid linework and dynamic compositions. I was quite pleased.
This was a great exercise and really sparked my creativity. (If only I could sustain that kind of energy all the time!)
(And since I can't figure out how to get multiple images to fly over here from Flickr, here's the link)
