This week was fully devoted to African-American hair textures, mostly afros, because if you tend to start gesture sketches with conjoined blobs (rather than boxes or lines), then afros are hella fun.
(The title of this post is swiped from Zig Zag Claybourne’s afro-futurist novel. ZZC is a really fun guy, and a great author. I met him back when I used to do the SF cons in the Detroit Metro area. There’s a piece of advice I got from him at some point that I repeat almost daily as I slog through my current novel draft: “You have to tell a work-in-progress you love it every day.”)
