I found a few more sketches in some old Moleskines that I never posted. I started scanning them in larger so you can see more detail when you click on the thumbnail. Some are downright huge.
I'm not sure who this is but, judging by his wardrobe I saw him in Reno.
Old guy at church. I think I had the Bangles song stuck in my head that day.
Random sketches and one memory sketch from work. Our new Editor has the most amazing hair, and I tried to capture his image from memory. He's the little one with the tie.
Assorted church sketches. I think everyone was falling asleep that day.
The color ones are from work. The two pencil sketches are from church.
This is an old one I did while my son was drawing all over the bathtub.
Some goofy-looking kid. Not mine, I think I saw him at the park.
More faces from work and church. The lady in the middle was in the ward choir and had her whole heart into the song. To the right of her is a very sweet lady that sings every chance that she gets. Her face is so animated that I have to look away whenever she starts to sing because I cannot help but laugh.
Random people at Ben & Jerry's and the mall.
Lincoln fell asleep on Tara at church. Ward Conference can do that to you.
Random sketches and a caricature of a news anchor in Palm Springs- Matt Lomand, or something like that. He had me on his show to do caricatures and, he could, quite possibly, be the most annoying person I have ever met. 
Missionaries at General Conference
I coloried a few church sketches in photoshop. Pushkin made his way in there somehow.
Just a few more posts and I will have most of the images transferred. This is a sketch (wax pencil) of Lincoln running around the yard. He is being an airplane and saying 'fly air!'
Guy at church.
People at the airport.
Work sketch of Rick Green and Steve Silberman.
Matt Solinsky, a caricature of George Bush and a Stalin-cicle.
Another sketch done during a meeting while I still worked at The Desert Sun. No, they didn't fire me for drawing my coworkers.
The one of Matt Solinsky, Sports Editor in Palm Springs, was one of my favorites for a long time. I don't think a successful sketch is one that looks exactly like someone. A sketch is only successful if it resembles someone but makes them look bad.
More work sketches.
Some sketches of Lincoln and one done at church. His name escapes me now but he was the most energetic conductor I have ever seen in my life.
Work sketches. The girl above (Julie something) now works for Marketplace on NPR. The other is another take on my old boss, Rick Green. The first one was happy Rick, this one is angry Rick.
I have a nasty habit of sketching people while I'm at church. I know of no other time when you get so much time to digest peoples faces and explore how to draw them. My wife's greatest fear is that someone will discover my notebook and see how I've skewered all the elderly and overweight people in my Ward. I have nothing against elderly or overweight people, they're just more fun to draw.
This guy looked way to angry to be a Mormon.
He had a magnificent nose.
His eyes were really far apart.
I love it when kids sing at church, they look hilarious. The guy on the bottom is actually a secret service agent. I won't name him because I really don't feel like taking a vacation in Guantanamo.
The idea for this blog is for me to have an outlet for my constant sketching. Over time, it became something else entirely. The original site is now out of commission (I got sick of paying for it) and it has taken me a couple of months to get this one going.
So, there is a huge backlog of images I had posted before and that I now need to move here. It might take me awhile to get them all posted but I will try to condense them all.
Sketches from work. Upper right is an old colleague and friend of mine, Nick Bolland and the girl is another college Kate Spillman.
Church sketch, Andy Hendrian.
Random sketch of a nerd and a gorilla.
A woman at IHOP. She was chowing on her pancakes!
