I promised the good…..and the not so good. Here are some sketches, just ideas or inspirations that hit me. I haven’t worked on a big piece in awhile. I think I would like to start one soon. As soon as my room is organized.
Okay…stop laughing…..here’s some sketches:
This is just a guy at a volunteer meeting I went to. Someone sat down in front of me and blocked my view before I could give him arms.
Coffee cup, paper plate, and napkin of the women in front of me at the meeting.
Fun little pond scene. Yes, I know I put a saltwater fish in a freshwater pond, but it’s not my fault…..really. He wanted to be there.
Then they started talking about the South Pole, and I thought polar bears, then penguins and seals came next. Not sure why the candle was there….it was a very long meeting….
This one was inspired by a painting Leslie White did. You can find the link here: http://lesliepaints.wordpress.com/2009/12/24/merry-christmas/
Sorry, you’re going to have to copy and paste because I’m lame and not sure how to make links…but seriously, check it out. It’s a very good painting.
This sketch was inspired by Monet’s ‘Woman with a Parsol’ painting. I would like to get some references and really try to draw more of this type of clothing.

Last, but not least, a drawing of my new phone, The Rogue! I love this phone, touch screen, super nifty, and yes Weifei, the bunny is still around!
So those are all the sketches I’ve done over the past week. Like I said, hopefully I’ll get into a bigger project soon. Although I do have a few ATC swaps coming up, so keep a lookout for those!













This is a sketch of a wine bar my friend discovered. Lucky for me she was late showing up, so I got a chance to sketch a little bit. I really like the atmosphere of this place, I’ll most likely go back to sketch some more.
This statue piqued my interest at a pool party. I didn’t mean to be anti-social, but I had to sketch it. I really need to learn how to shade with my micron pens.
I made myself go sketch at the zoo. I wasn’t really in the mood, but I really really am trying to draw more. So I did not do to many drawing, but these are two of them. I really like how the koala came out. I used a conte pencil for the first time, much less messy then conte crayons.
