Postcards

Above, left to right: Edgar Allan Poe, Emily Dickinson, and R. Crumb.In March of 2019 I started sketching free hand on 4 x 6 postcards. I often draw them in bed. Playing with postcards helps me to draw fast and loose and hopefully achieve some cartoony likenesses. I generally draw in series, such as American Literary History, Jazz performers, or The Mexican Revolution. Below, left to right: Venustiano Carranza, Woman with a rifle (after a Casasola photograph), and Emiliano Zapata.
