I got frustrated after a while. I was thinking way too graphically. My drawings had no emotional content to them, maybe because they weren't remotely situational. There isn't any sign that I'm traveling here.
A dream-vision I had, right before falling asleep, when thinking about Rafiki:
A little caricature I made of the mayor of new york giving a speech after the death of Nikola Tesla, the inventor. The mayor is reading a eulogy written by a famous author, and though he probably only knows a little about Tesla's story, he reads it with a lot of passion. The reading was broadcast over the radio a half century ago and it's quite passionate so I felt like doodling my imagining of it. Note my first ever (probably) use of a little motion blurred finger:
The last drawings I made before I burned out and decided I needed to stop drawing and pay attention to my surroundings, because I wasn't engaging my travels enough.

DUDE! Beautiful drawings. I love that woman in the sunglasses in the first spread. She feels real.
And good call on the situational thing; I know that for me this has become an important aim: to show exactly where I was and how it felt to be there. A good goal to strive for.
