Waiting for an oil change...


The girl's not waiting for an oil change. I was. The girl is just what happened while I was waiting for an oil change. Original character here. Don't know what her story is. Is her outfit regular clothes or maybe some kinda sci-fi nurse thing...
I didn't have my regular lead on me (F or H) so I was using a pencil that had HB in it and didn't have a good eraser. HB is a little soft for my taste so I went with it and dropped a little tone in there. So I left the shop with clean oil in my car and a graphite palm... I call it a good day.

Wonderful sketch! I'm inspired by it to take advantage of the moment and DRAW...I never seem to think of that when I'm just sitting around waiting... :)

I think if you know you're going someplace where you might be sitting around for a time it's a good idea to bring a sketchbook along. Some guys I know have a smaller 4 by 6 inch sketchbook they carry around everywhere. The time flies then.
