People of Color #1 - A Spotted Woman with Flyer

This week you get to see sketchbook drawings again, woo hoo! These are colored marker
drawings I have done over the years. I drew, then colored, the people.



Most will have symbols and images familiar to those who have seen my work over the
years. I would love to know your thoughts on those symbols and the drawings in general.

A Woman Thinking Things - Church Drawing #6

This week I continue the church drawings, but these were all done in my bible. The

This one was of a teenager in church and I imagined what she was thinking while the
pastor droned on about things she really didn't care about.

Drawn at Asbury United Methodist Church, Tulsa, OK
