05.16.11-05.22.11. 1st week.

This is the first official week of my commitment to create 5 drawings a week.  It was a challenging week.  I felt over-saturated by the layers, textures, and busy rhythm of the Chicago landscape.  I found myself trying to figure out a way to capture the essence of the place, but not get bogged down with all the layers and details.  How can I get back to the simplicity of the Ireland sketches?  Is it even possible?
