For this series, I'm trying to hone my beginner skills by focusing on the architecture of each strange creature through reference photos, while also using it as a log for interesting animal facts.

this is a photo I drew of a zentangle landscape after the singer jhene Aiko and her song happiness over everything. it's not done. Yet!!!!

Try it: Take a sharpie, give yourself five-minutes on the clock and see what doodle you come up with.

A completed page, from my Moleskine.

Just about there with this one. Not sure if it works as I wanted it to!

I have mental problems and was just feeling super stressed because I thought people thought I was a sicko so crying, I drew this.

Progress? The finished Illustration!

Ink and markers in my sketchbook for The Sketchbookproject.

Finished full version of an image I did in three parts, adding to it to create three separate images.

We all come from different places and I wish I could visit them all.

Doodling is what I do. It's a way to make visible the randomness that's in my head - just drawing out a concept right when it comes to mind and scribbling on whatever I can find.

This week hasn't been great. My anxiety was pretty high for most of it, and it was honestly for no reason. My brain tends to be very chaotic, I suppose, and I have trouble controlling my thoughts sometimes. This was a random doodle I did last night at 10 p.m. I've decided I'm going to add color to it, which will either look good or make everyone's eyes hurt even more..at least I have a picture of this version.

Threw together this pattern study last week. Been using Posca pens since December and I'm loving how quickly they dry. I can throw together quick sketches without having to worry too much about smearing the ink as I move along.
