| Three Women Discussing the End of the American Empire |
This was drawn at the bar at Eulipia Restaurant in San Jose, California where I worked. The woman on the left was later divorced by the chef. The woman in the middle had a cool 80s hairdo, and the woman on the right had strong wrinkles that I liked quite a bit.

| A Christian Coveting |
This is Susan Brown. I don’t remember her, but it say her name on the back of the drawing. We were at a friend’s house when I drew her. I think I added the gloves. And I don’t think she really was coveting me. I just got that vibe from the angle of her pose. I remember thinking she had great nostrils.

| April Dancing |
And finally, what is probably the best gesture drawing I have ever done. It was in a figure drawing class I was teaching and I had told the clothed model to dance. The students’ task was to capture the feel of the dance. This was drawn as a demonstration while they watched.
