these faces...

these faces... Originally uploaded by * jdt...
" If you want to study yourself -- look into the hearts of other people. If you want to study other people -- look into your own heart." --- Friedrich von Schiller ***i woke up early for this... remembered this sketch that i was supposed to blog about and didn't... but as you know my memory ain't the best lately... anyway, i drew this sketch while waiting for my turn at the bank sometime last week... half sleepy and dozing off a couple of times... i didn't bring my sketch pad because i wanted to write... but the pen i brought along had a broken nib and the ink runs at each stroke... so i chose to sketch instead... the weird thing is i can see faces outlined from the different sections of this sketch as i draw... the lines would resemble a profile... eyes, mouth and nose... i sure am not good with drawing faces only trees... but maybe it's just me and my sleepy self seeing things... but as i look at it now... indeed! some of them are there... who are they... pieces of the self waiting recognition... people in my life waiting attention... or people i've yet to meet... waiting for our paths to cross... i dunno... i just know they are there...
