Well, as mentioned, I’m on the next SBS Kourse: Polishing
The first week is “comic strips” with Danny Gregory.
Before the week began, I decided to shave off my beard and ‘stache. So you’ll see some newer self-portraits here.
I tried (and failed) to stay up all night to start Polishing as one of the first. So I started drawing my bedtime espresso and chocolate muffin. I also watched a video with Danny and drew him for about 30 minutes.
Most of these pics are in my A6 Hahnemühle sketchbook with my Lamy Safari “F” nib and Lamy ink.










All(ish) is revealed! And further evidence that ‘peak-beard’ has passed… Excellent cross-hatching on the faces, especially the last portrait with lines curving to create form as well as shade, and love the sketchy clarity of Bonn.
