For the #dailysketchext I did yesterday I did a preliminary sketch of another photo to sort of "feel it out" first. I knew I wanted to do a Japanese or Chinese face (I will move on to the other Asian faces later) and try to get a feeling for the characteristics of the features. I have noticed that when I draw people they tend to look a lot like me. I'm trying to consciously move away from that. Not that it's a bad thing per se, but I want to show in my artwork that I recognize that the world is not just all about me ;-)
