As I mentioned yesterday, I decided that I like these two sets of square drawings with coloured backgrounds.
They are very, very busy and full on with the colours. I need to make space between the two sets on the page here.

The figure on the bottom row here has a messed up face. So I've been trying to draw a replacement today. It's tricky because the way I draw varies slightly depending on how I feel each time. I'm trying to limit the variation by choosing the same tools (size of pen nib for example) but it's really hard to make one that fits.
I don't want to spend too much time on it. I could just skip the bottom row and have a 6 square set.
I started out today by drawing a whole set very roughly to try and loosen up. But the black and white 'replacement' sketches I created today still don't have the dynamic of the ones above. I think my mistake was to give myself too much time. I should have set a clock and then the urgency would create the dynamism. The warm up ones have more dynamic because I created them quickly.
Here I've tried the replacement images in the set (the ones in black and white). Once I've got some I like, I will try adding the same type of background.
