The first of many Derek. Good fun isn't it? Well done, not a happy face but such a lively biro line!

Thanks Louise, first of many? I doubt it. Not a happy face, but that's me.

Well done Derek, it's a fun challenge and you've risen to it!

Very Picasso - perhaps that was his secret - contour drawing!! Love this as it has expression and a sense of gravitas about it.

Hello Derek! Nice to meet you! Well done for your one line selfie, it's really great and such fun.

Thank you Christina, Thea and Satu. I must admit it wasn't easy, so different to how we try and draw things normally and I am very careful about my sketches, but it's done - another one? Who knows.

Love the glasses!

Thanks Debs and Gudrun. My specs are often like that anyway

Another good contour drawing.....must be addictive:)

Nice one Derek! Looking forward to the next one:)

What? Who said next one?????????

Now we know what you look like Derek ;)

Hmm! It's not a million miles away.

Thanks Michael. I missed the early note on how this started, was the idea to not look at the page you are drawing on, only at the subject?

Eleventyeight as my hashing pals called my new age recently, it's supposed to sound better. Trying to paint every day in acrylics using only expired credit/debit cards, and partially succeeding as they're only for me and not show these days.
