        I think that a good way to practice, I always have a notebook with me, and draw every moment I can. Keep it up 🙂

        Never give up, always push yourself two steps further than you believe you can go.

            Definitely a good way to better your craft as you sit for what seems like hours waiting for some sort of paperwork. The sketches look great and I really like the gestural feel you have on some of these.

              I love people sketches! One of my favorite things is to chill in a coffee shop with a good ol' sketchbook and some pens and pencils. Good way to make waiting at the DMV not so horrid.

                That is something, what I always wanted to ask you guys. I also love to chill in coffee shops and watch people around me. But I am always wondering if they would mind if I start sketching them. Have you ever got in trouble by tensed persons, who noticed to be watched? Maybe I am overthinking this, but this is what drew me back from sketching in public. (maybe that is a German kind of worry... ;-)).

                  I haven't noticed, in fact I have had positive responses.

                    @Ben-Rudnicki142 I haven't done coffee house sketching in a while, but most of the time people don't even notice. The ones that have usually just want to see what you're doing because they think it's neat. Never really had a bad experience.

                        Thanks everyone. Sorry for the late response. I try to make it a habit of carrying my sketchbook.
