still figuring out the shape (I know, kind of already posted this a few times).  I kind of like it being messier and looser.. (also, the shadows on her look different on my PC vs. my Mac, so I will be adjusting those)

Another one with the Cranberries singer (in-progress). Working on shading practice, using a Pastel Photoshop brush.  Gonna make some sharper edges/lines, too.

Laughing guy, maybe kind of creepy looking, the way I drew him for now; and the fellow I drew from before, playing with color and shapes to put around him.  (Photos used as reference:  http://tigg-stock.deviantart.com/art/London-Folk-10-89253601  and http://tigg-stock.deviantart.com/art/Beamish-Folk-26-101085300)  (and also connected to:  http://randomactscreative.com/ )

Playing around, making weird and random things.. planning to obscure and cover over more of it soon, especially my monumental self-doodle.

Drawings of people.. pretty basic, done with a computer tablet.. one is supposed to be Delores O’Riordan of the Cranberries, and the two fellows are from photos of some people in rural England.
