Sketchbook drawings part 2...

This post is not specific like the last one, in fact it's a proper mish-mash of randomness. A lot of this stuff is out of my imagination, or I've used reference photos of myself as a starting point. Some of these ideas were supposed to be converted into finished paintings, but for whatever reason it didn't happen. The colour studies were prepared first with a layer of Clear Gesso, then painted in oil. If there was one piece of advice I'd give to art students, at any level, is keep a sketchbook. They are often at least as interesting as an artists final pieces.
