Yes, I used a circle template to begin this drawing. Inside the circles I made gestural lines. The other night I had just finished my latest grid. It was then I decided to go back to this unfinished sketch and render the shapes I had created inside the circles. It didn’t take me long to finish polishing my image. Given the “oohs” and “ahs” from folks watching me draw this sketch, I will probably pursue more drawings like this one.
