Minimalist Commuters

When I sketch light rail commuters, my main objective is to see how few marks and lines I can make and still capture a person’s essence. If I get the face in profile, then I don’t need to draw all the hair. If I get the left ear, I don’t have to get the right ear. This minimalist approach saves time (which is critical, since I never know when my victim will get off or someone might block my view), but more important, it requires me to think about what’s most important to include. Super challenging fun!

  1. You say so much with so little. A great lesson for someone who can't shake getting down every detail. :-)
