Hiiiii :-D

Today’s random sketches – drawn on the train. No referencing peeps here. Except the dude with the hair hehe.
Nothing finished for you lately cos I’m workin on stuff. I can’t show you half a drawing as I swear it’s a curse…I’m already a bit over that drawing of the secret blogger. But I really should finish it. When I’m done with this weeks CHOW (theme is Atlantian Anarchist – yeh that’s right).

Only a few small things for today. Waiting to hear back from my client about some art I submitted and then I will show you all :-D

Some train sketches. Always seem to notice the hair and headwear a person has.

And a drawing of a vintage coat. Love the cut! If only I could find something like this for winter. Yes I am already thinking about the colder months. It doesn’t take me long to get bored of the season.

My new computer should hopefully arrive next week so you will ALL know about it when that gets here hehe.
Bya!

Train observations and Boof

Thursday, January 14th, 2010

A few sketches from the train today. Not trying to be realistic because I can’t really sit staring at people too long. So these are drawn with only a quick glance to try and capture as much in my memory as possible, and then draw what I can.

A kid, some crows and a guy at one of the stations with a backpack. I’m not sure if he actually had a backpack – I only got to look as the train was pulling into the station and he got on a carriage behind me….I was more interested in his pose and his clothes. He looked kind of beat!

And this, drawn last night as my beautiful kitty Boof was sleeping. It’s great to have a living creature that I can draw from life! And he’s just too adorable when he sleeps – his face was all mooshed into the couch. Awwwww.
This took about 20 minutes.

Trying to be a bit more considerate with my lines. And build tone with lots of light strokes instead of fewer heavy ones. Probably best for all that fur too!
Oh man it is SO much easier drawing from life instead of a photo!!! I thought it was meant to be the other way round….but somehow I can understand the form better when I see it in 3D in front of me.

Sooooo…..in other news…..The boyfriend is working Saturday night again. I think I will continue my binge of Mad Men episodes. THE OUTFITS! Holy Cow. And maybe I will squeeze some drawing in. Oh and make some tiramisu….got a craving! Hehe.
Till then!
Bye!

More pretty stuff

I got my new diary today. The very pretty Moleskine 2010 Daily 12 Colours Diary from Notemaker. Yay!

I *could* get a free diary from work but they’re those boring officey type diaries. Yawn! Nothing beats a Moleskine!

So here are some pictures for your viewing pleasure:

These are a fraction smaller pics. My Flickr Uploader wasn’t working very well today. Boo.

Each month is a separate coloured little book. Small and neat to fit in your bag but looks pretty all together as a display also.
I’m glad February is red (my birthday month) :-D
