Emerging from the wild of the Frame

I tend to extol the virtues of eschewing one's own mannerisms in class, but I'm fighting that problem myself right now. I think the eye line of all my drawings is a problem when working from imagination.. it starts to look too similar, too squared off, always the same shape, even in the paintings which are more worked over... but again, these wild weekend drawings tend to take the emphasis off of that frailty with the gesture running around outside.
