Café Sketch 06: Combining Prior Experiences

The digital tools are very seductive, allowing me to zoom in quickly and add accurate details as I go.

Too often, however, I lose track of the whole image and the end result is an overly-tight, technical drawing without life.

Taking cues from two other café sketches, the most recent White Objects and my first sketch on the new tablet, I tried to loosen up the lines and cross-hatching with a big marker-like tool and develop the forms selectively.
