So this blog was supposed to be a place to record my daily sketches. I suppose I ought to add them then! I discovered today what a complex piece of flesh the human ear really is. Yes, this one took a bit more than 5 minutes. I was trying to draw it from memory, and it just wasn't turning out right. So I set it aside. After about an hour of covertly studying my co-workers' ears (Uh, Becky, why are you staring at my ear?), I tried again, and came up with the image you see here. Still not right, but it looks a lot better.

Then, in keeping with the idea of the 5 minute sketch, I tried to draw my GMC Jimmy from memory. That's when I realized that I don't even know what my car really looks like. It's a whole lot easier to sketch something out when you can look at it.
Well, back to the drawing board...
You are so right! Now that I'm getting into drawing, I'm noticing things I didn't before--shapes and shadows and such.
