Sketchbook: Drawing from Photos

No cartoon this morning. Working on my next McSweeney's column, so let me share some sketchbook warm-ups with you. One of my favorite things to do for fun is draw from old pictures and feel my way through what the photographer saw at one moment in time. It's good practice and pure joy.

I just joined Instagram @cartoonconnie and will post more sketchbook and process stuff there.

Next challenge: To draw more from life! Thanks, as always, for reading.
