I've been looking through my old sketchbooks from art school and my younger days in the 70s-90s. I did a lot of work in pencil which looks better than what I expected of it for student drawings. I depicted art model nudes, portraits of friends, and images of the world and people around me. So I've decided to pencil it up for a while to see if I can equal or surpass the sketches I did in those olden days. This guy was sitting by the wall in a lavish pastry shop and cafe I frequent, "Pastry XPo." My drawing pencil is simply one of those yellow Number 2 pencils you find wherever writing occurs.
