Interests Sketch

These sketches might seem completely random, but in doing research for my characters I've been delving into their interests too (they're not JUST soldiers), so college football teams from the '30s and jazz drummers from around that time are on that list. I've been sketching as I read.

 

 

I'm an artist writing and drawing a graphic novel that takes place during the Second World War. On this blog I will display the sketches I do in researching and preparing for the book.
