Today’s @sketch_dailies prompt on Twitter: Gargoyles! This one is based on a real Notre Dame denizen. I have mixed feelings about Sketch Dailies.

But this Twitter account has exposed me to some incredible artists, and it can be a little intimidating to see what they consider a “sketch.” Every publicized drawing seems to be a finished illustration.
