So, here's the last few drawings, I'll post, of the jiving (thanks, Elaine!) from the day I spent at the1950s event at Crich Tramway Village. This was a really great excercise in drawing people. You have to work quick - especially when the music was as fast and furious as this. Emmercing yourself in the whole atmosphere and getting caught up in the pace, and the beat, comes through in the drawing. I hope. I couldn't get enough of this whole scene; from them rockin on the dance floor to them watching from the sideline, waiting to be asked to dance.

- you gotta roll with it
- put on your red dress baby
- jive talking
- whole lot of shakin' goin' on
- feelin' devilish
- under the bridges of Paris
- c'est si bon
- you laid it down for all to see
- up the shambles
- you are a look in your eye
- side-streets that you slip down
- what did you feel there?
- above the clouds
- come a little bit closer

It amazes me how much your distinct drawing style shows through even in your quick sketches! These are really fun and full of energy!

Hey! There are some faces coming through ... I can't wait to see you becoming more sure about drawing them and getting all the expression out.
Thanks, guys.
Jamie, can you really see my style in those sketches? I feel pleased about that because I always feel I'm scratching around looking for my style when it comes to drawing people.
Same goes for faces, Michel. I think it'll take a while before I feel more confident about drawing faces but I just have to keep drawing cos that's the only way I will become more confident; practice practice practice!
Thanks, you both. Your comments are most appreciated.
