[Daily Doodle] Black Man

Daily Doodle: From the long list of things I need to work on: drawing people other than young skinny white chicks. This was reffed (with the usual slight changes of angle or dress or whatevs), because the shameful truth is that I could not have drawn a black man off the cuff. My white privilege is all over the place -- I can draw people who look like me and it's a drop in the bucket, but I try to draw a black person and it's like hoshit. Well, I'll continue trying to familiarize myself with other skin tones, shapes, and general variations on people =)
