An art/performance piece featuring myself and 4 other artist debuting this Saturday
Sketchbook
I’ve been working on my freelance marketing business lately and haven’t had time to take my images from sketchbook to finished art. It feels like I am storing up all these bits of ideas which will someday make their way into a story.
This is a page of notes from a children’s book illustration conference I attended on Sunday. I picked up a few tips but it always comes back down to just doing the work…
a sketch
Yes, I still exist but I am buried in work. I dug up a drawing from 3 weeks ago to remind myself that I like to do this too. It’s the opening page to my sketchbook. Hopefully, more to come….
muscle building doodles
I haven’t drawn much lately and I felt rusty when I sat down to draw this morning. It feels like my hand won’t obey my mind. But slowly, slowly, the energy starts to infuse my finger tips and then I just follow along a winding trail. The blank page can be so intimidating after a long absence.
I think it will be a good exercise to occasionally post my doodles – they don’t have much deep meaning but some of them look like they do!
the art of breakfast
Yum, Danny Gregory makes breakfast so creative! If someone did a video about my process, it would not be as interesting – lots of shots of me squinting at the computer and getting up to stretch when my back starts aching…
Gregory also produced a few short films about other illustrators. I love getting a peak inside someone else’s process. It’s so mysterious and life affirming.
