Day 2

Already got a couple of panels organized for the coming days, but tomorrow I'll be taking an early break from this narrative. A friend of mine from MTM will be heading out to paint in the park. So I'm going to try my hand at some on location painting.

I will be switching up the canvas as these tiles tend to melt in direct sunlight... seriously... but should be well above the 12 x 12 inch minimal size

Day 1

First day of the project... and I know, its the painting from before... yes I got started ahead of time, so technically I'm working 2 days ahead of schedule. Just a precaution for the sake of time and in the interest of sanity...



I really got to learn how to take better pictures of these things. Also the text will be added in once I figure out how to properly digitize them. No point in doing the extra dialog work and then having to redo it.

Hey kid, wanna know how the world ends?

To sound like a broken record. Apologizes for the delay in getting more things posted. Haven't had much time for art in the past few days, but I have been doing some renovation work around the house. In fact I was able to salvage some new painting canvas' from the basement tiles

they are 12 by 12 inch linoleum tiles from the 1940s. They wreak of moldy old glue, they crack pretty easily, and are very cold to paint on. oh, plus they tend to melt in the sun... but I got over 50 free canvas' so I've decided to do up a short story from the lightbulb head project. "Hey kid, wanna know how the world ends?"


that dialog will appear on the lower frame, from the past out hobo looking character there... The point of this project and the massive stack of 26 primed tiles so to try an complete a tile each day. Not sure if that will work out, but I'll be giving it my all.

on an unrelated note... here is where the magic happens, and incidentally the table that's the namesake of the blog

I'll clean it tomorrow is an ongoing motto

with sexy results

Alright, as promised, I made it out to draw at Dr. Sketchy's which was an incredible experience. I'm certainly going to try to make it to every session humanly possible... good crowd, great models... (they were seriously posing in high heels all night, big kudos there) these drawings don't really do the poses justice, so hopefully I can do better next session.









and now its getting to image life drawing without a bar nearby...

Finally, drawing nude people again...

Alright, so I lapsed on the blog for a bit... been extremely busy with photo albums, and other life things... including a ton of painting, which I'll eventually post on here... in due time...

but in the meantime, naked drawings... or life drawings as a proper term...







hopefully I'll be doing some Dr. Sketchy's drawings for the next post... stay tuned

8 hour flight + recovery

Back from Budapest, and only had to stay awake for 20 some odd hours... got a ton of work to get done over the next 7 days, so might be a bit before I get to post again...

just wanted to get some drawings up from the trip. Sadly didn't have much time to do more....







anyways, I'll try to put something more up later this week... 8 hours worth of doodling actually...

Practice certainly makes something

Today was way too glorious... so I finally got out to do some wildlife sketching... unfortunately being out of practice, they really aren't worth posting up here, but just need a bit more practice... also first time using watercolour pencil crayons... I like the results, but again I need way more practice with them...




also tried my hand at a couple more building gestures... its been tricky trying to amalgamate the quick lines with perspective practices... but think I'm starting to get the hang of it...
