Ballpoint Reruns

Its been a year since I last took a sabbatical from Drawing On Observations to visit London and Paris. This year we have something special planned. I’ll tell you about it when I return. In the mean time, I’m reposting some of my favorite portraits doodled over the past year

Due to spam issues all comments will be turned off until I return.
