Many people tend to travel on the same commuting routes repeatedly
to work or school. I’m not very regular – I take whatever train or bus will get
me to my social or recreational activities – but I sometimes wonder if I’ve
ever sketched the same person twice.

I’d like to think that once I sketch a face, I’ll remember
it the next time I see it, but I doubt I would. So many men I draw look and
dress similarly. Women tend to look more unique than men, but I wouldn’t
necessarily remember them, either.

Unlike a place I’m sketching, I often have only the distance
between two stops to observe and draw a face. When I begin one, I generally
assume they’ll be leaving within minutes, so the pressure is on to capture as much as I can
before they do. And the pressure of not knowing how long I have is a large part
of what I enjoy about sketching fellow commuters. Unfortunately, that kind of
sketching doesn’t store the face in my long-term memory.
