so i did a little figure drawing in the studios today.
mr reusch and his mask and platform shoes were awesome.
im a little rusty in the figure drawing, especially in men, but it was fun.

freelance update

so this week has been busy busy busy.
i had to whip up three illustrations for freelance class
in pretty much one night - something i WOULD NEVER sign up for myself - 
but hey, i got them done. 
they came out pretty decent, and im putting the flying veggies and fruits one in my portfolio.



in other news, i got my business cards.
theyre pretty. having something physical in my hand with my 
name and telephone number on it makes me feel professional.

and i just ordered my postcards.
im getting 4 different ones, because i like options.
that way, if i dont like you - ill give you the one i like the least.

kidding. i love all my art equal. like a parent.

April 3, 2009

AFTER LITERALLY TWO MONTHS - I have finally solved my drawing issues with my third 
degree project piece. Ive finished the figure. FINALLY.

i got a little carried away with the hair, so ill trim a little off the top when i attach her.
and the feather shapes will be embroidered. 

day 2.

ive been drawing just whats at hand.
that includes my salad container in the h&m break room.

April 2, 2009

ive committed myself to doing one sketch a day. i need the practice, and ive
found a lovely combination of moleskin and red mechanical pencil.
its amazing how a good combination of paper/tool can make me want to draw again.
