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?
