hardback sketchbook - 348 x 330 - odd shape.

the inside front cover - a lot in this book was drawn with Rotring calligraphy pens...

..or brush and (Rotring) ink.

copies of Gustav Klimt drawings.

makes me think of Nick Cave.

portrait of a (forgotten) politician

portrait of a playwright.
a lot of the portrait sketches are done by looking at the photograph, but not the drawing/sketchbook whilst most of the drawing is done. this technique is quite hit and miss, but can lead to some interesting results where things don't quite fit properly.

easter then, easter now.

no idea.

again, no idea. this is one of those 'blind' portraits I mentioned, though. hatching, shading and other embellishments are added after the basics are drawn.
