People sketching 30-day challenge - Day 6

I enjoyed drawing this one, even if it didn't quite turn out as I'd planned. I still managed to capture the guy's happy gait so I'm okay with it. I do wonder if I'll ever get the hang of hands though…

Here's day 3's submission and I think I'm starting to find it easier to sketch people. Maybe. Drawing the shoes seemed much easier this time around and getting the proportions right seemed more intui…
