That's the name of the sketch, not when I did it.
I have a couple a books of art exercises, a one-a-day kind of thing. I am relatively consistent with them, but I am often not sure of the point. Here's today's:
I mean, it's fun and all, and I guess it inspires creativity in a general way, but it's not really practicing technique... and that's what I need (want?) most. (Check this out, towards the end.)
Even though the office Postcard Project is over, I decided to continue with some folks who weren't on the original list.
Monday 10.18 a pinky swear to Jackie and Jeff
In my continuing efforts to draw every day and break though the inner critic so I can improve, here's another quick non-judgemental sketch to keep the juice flowing.
So, the initial phase of the Postcard Project is completed - all those who sent me their snail mail addresses when I asked have received a card and all the cards have been posted here. There's still several postcards left in the pack and I still have a few postcard stamps, so there will likely be a few one-offs in the future. We shall see.
In the meantime, I am continuing to try to Do Art more regularly. Here's today's effort - I was inspired to try to recreate the point of view I so often had ten or fifteen years ago when I was blogging regularly.
As I went sketching merrily along, I tried to experiment with some perspective and with controlling the line weight using my Copic 110 marker brush. Not terribly happy with either.
