I appreciate all drawing, especially studies & sketches, experiments, the informal, personal-private, and even the haphazard; the duds, fails, DUIs, etc.  For more insight into an artist beyond their oeuvre, to see more of 'who' they were, take a close look at their drawings, such that they exist.  Consider any extensive portfolio of drawings to be the ultimate self portrait, a tell-all, a log, etc.   And, as such, you'll see their handy works weren't all home runs!  This is a selection, imo, of such 'less-than-perfect' or 'special in their own way'... type efforts, or even pictures that somebody pinched from their trash(!) -an ongoing collection for fun, presented in no particular order (to include but still missing some major names) of the just plain awkward.
