A few sketches

In the spirit of keeping things moving around here, I'll throw down some random sketches. I hope the fact that these are essentially doodles is not a disappointment.  The truth is that I enjoy doing these more than I do wrestling a final, finished piece of work to the ground. I have yet to preserve the confidence and playfulness of an early sketch all the way to the final color version . Half the time, the paint is just lipstick on a corpse.

(Hey, good idea for a sketch!)
