I know this isn't entirely sketchbook-related, but I thought I'd share my charcoal drawing for an album cover I just did for a friend's musical group in NYC last weekend because I'm really excited about it. It also did start of as a bunch of sketches on top of one another. The image will undergo some editing in Adobe Photoshop to smooth out the tiny white dots that resulted from the highly textured paper I used. No more textured paper for album covers. That was a silly idea.
