I’m currently working on a bunch of things and trying to update the portfolio on this site. There’s more murals to come. I actually have “real” photos of them and have to get them digitized. I used to work in a photo lab and really miss all that 35mm.
In between everything else, I have my sketchbook. My sketchbook is sort of like a diary or journal even though it doesn’t contain many words. I’ll write my ideas down in it or a word here and there. Most of it is scribble sketches and practices for larger works. I always carry this size around with me. If I have an idea or see something inspiring, it’s right there to capture my thoughts in an image.
I wouldn’t post everything in my sketchbook since it is like a diary, but here’s a couple:
I like to always be creating something even though it may not fit into the body that I’m currently working on. I’ve been seeing a lot of butterflies out lately and thought I’d sketch one out. I left out the shading because I intend at some point to color it in with colored pencils. The other is a sketch of my favorite flower – the tulip. Both strong and fragile.
