A bit of portrait sketching today. Trying to keep things simple:

Harking back to last year's trip to San Francisco with this sketch of Union Square:

A bit of sketching while I watched the news today:

Although many Calgary residents were able to begin returning to their homes yesterday to assess the flood damage, today was the first real opportunity for volunteers to gather and start helping with the cleanup. These are just a few images from the news that help illustrate the beginning of the city's very long process of getting back to normal:

I spent yesterday worrying (like so many others) for all my friends and family in and around the city that were affected by the flood. Yesterday was surreal, and I'd love never to experience that again!
I painted this yesterday, immensely thankful to have my family, friends, home and studio intact:

More style sheets... I love drawing the beards and other facial hair!

More practice sketching noses and keeping the graphite marks subtle...

Today I watched Jian Ghomeshi's interview with Joni Mitchell on CBC, then spent a good part of the day painting this:

Painting outside and enjoying the sun, which finally made an appearance today:
