abstract

My current sketchbook is the lovingly titled "Blue Sketchbook." Feel free to enjoy its many, many pages, plus two bonus zoom-ins of favorite spreads! Let me know if you have any questions.

An hour drive in the passenger seat means an hour for me to fill the page with lines, shapes and shadows

Coffee and ink. Feelings....

Here's an ink illustration from my sketchbook. The only thing more terrifying than dying of the plague might be encountering a plague doctor. The type at the bottom says "A Black Sun Revolves Around You." It's been distorted and abstracted, but it's derived from letterforms.

Watercolour painting of medieval costumes, and their pretty fabrics.

Pen and ink doodle of a fantasy city in the sky.

Doodle to keep us reminding that doodling rocks.

This project consist of 3 different gouache/ watercolor paintings with pencil details on top. I actually made these for a specific purpose, but I made make more, since I really enjoyed making it!

Abstract line drawing while thinking about the different rock formations found in caves, cliffs, hills and those in my rock collection.

Taking a break from the abstract to sketch the Grevilleas growing in the backyard.

Stairs and buildings in an abstract, geometric city.

Back in the studio after taking the weekend off. Experimenting with adding colour and bolder lines.

Continuing to make works that create feelings of movement using line.

I generally make marks on something every day, but I'm really TRYING to do it purposefully in one single journal at a time. I also have super ADHD, which means I pretty much never go up to my actual studio and usually only use what's out on my desk, because out-of-sight-out-of-mind.

I love the way abstract flowers make me feel free.

In celebration of Year of the Tiger, I illustrated this Tiger with vector shapes and then shades the shapes with a variety of pixel brushes. Then I doodled some abstract brush strokes as the background with a red and gold color theme.

I generally make marks on something every day, but I'm really TRYING to do it purposefully in one singular location (journal). Here is a successful attempt from that particular day. I'm also super lazy, which means I never go up to my actual studio and only use what's out on my computer desk.

I do generally put pen (or some kind of tool), to paper (or some kind of surface), every day, but I'm really TRYING to do it purposefully in one singular location (journal). Here is a successful attempt from that particular day. I'm also super lazy, which means I never go up to my actual studio and only use what's out on my computer desk. (Including the "waste" page because I often like it as much/more.)
