Abstracts

So I'm just looking for an excuse not to do homework for a little while. These are some abstract landscapes for class. We started with marker patterns then looked into the marks to try to see landscapes. Sorta like looking at clouds. They still need a lot of work, but I feel better about theses then my last photoshop attempts. I like landscapes so that helps, but I am also starting to like photoshop too. Yay!

Digital

So I've been forced into the digital arena. Thus far, it has been an uphill battle; however, I have confidence that I will rally and eventually master this strange beast. Hopefully. A first attempt at photoshop and a few things from 3D. More to come. Oh, and a thrown together model sheet. Whoo...

Sketch sketch sketch

Just a few sketches. I'm just going to keep doing interiors until I finally get it right. This one is from the new Zoka in Kirkland. It's pretty swanky.

Marker Sketches

School! Yay school! But no art from school :( I haven't gotten around to scanning anything at school and most of it is too large for my sad little scanner. But never fear, it will happen. Just a few 5 mins sketches of the notorious Chuck Wood and another interior at Chocolati. I would like to really focus getting perspective down. I just can't seem to integrate it into my drawing at all. Next time Gadget, next time.

A few things

School is about to begin so either I will update a lot more often or a lot less, depending on how lazy I get in terms of scanning. I've given the brush pen another go. I'd like to get good at it someday. Just a quick attempt at the interior at Chocolati.

Cafe Vita and Bauhaus

Lots of coffee lately... I would feel weird just sitting down in a cafe without ordering anything, but it might come to that. I'll just conspicuously slip some cash into the tip jar and the baristas will get where I'm coming from. Just a few sketches from Vita and Bauhaus. Short story today. Sorry. Stay tuned.

Trains

So I had intended to do a ridiculous amount of drawing on the train ride to down to Emeryville, however, it was not meant to be. Who would have thought that drawing on a train would be such a novelty? It's like walking around with a new puppy, everyone wants to stop you and give you their two cents about how awesome that is. And then there were the dudes that must have been super turned on by the delicate strokes of a pencil on paper because it seems like my coach ticket included a speed dating package that I did not sign up for. NOTE: Guys that hit on girls on trains are super weird. So this was all I managed to do. San Francisco was amazing, as always, and I wish I could have stayed longer. I would love to do get a chance to do some art next time I visit.
