Recently I’ve been doodling faces a lot in my little note sketchbook, here’s one page. All straight from the imagination, not so much observations of people around me. I regard it as a kind of imaginative work-out – free doodling without the pressures of meeting a brief. It’s not for any specific project, though I’m actually preparing to begin work on the fifth Charlie Bone novel later in the autumn, so maybe some of these doodles will eventually appear in some form or other in the pages of the book.
