Here are a few recent sketches I created on my iPad. I am reading “Rooftops of Tehran: A Novel” by Mahbod Seraji and this is what I imagine the character Zari to look like. For this sketch, I spent a bit more time than usual on the shading, and I am please with how it turned out. I feel like I’m improving bit-by-bit, and it might sound simple, but the more time spent, the better it becomes. I guess I am sometimes just lazy. Anyways, I also did a Sailor Moon photo as part of a drawing challenge that is going around, and then a couple more quick sketches. It’s almost always fun to make these, but I have to say, the sketch above is the most satisfying drawing I’ve done in a while. 😀
To see all the sketches I’ve been working on, you can check out the Flickr album “My Sketching Journey”, or my Instagram account barron.sketches which I created just for posting sketches, watercolors, and stationery items.
