playing

Just playing with lines and pens

Playing around with bird patterns. I scanned in all my watercolor birds and then arranged them with GIMP.

In the migration seasons the geese and swans fly for the night to the sea get safe rest .And playing with positive and negative spaces

Playing around with digital stained-glass effects, and thought it would be fun to portray tropical summer vibes in a medium where you don't usually find them. Shout out to Lisa Bardot at bardotbrush.com for the basic digital technique.

Playing with some experimental media while drawing from life with my students last spring. Gearing up for new sessions in a couple weeks.

Playing with colored inks at fountain pen

It's starting to feel a little bit fall-like around here so I'm playing with some new colors.

It’s always good to find some drawing time on vacation. We went to some weird random small towns in Washington and a ghost town called Burke with some particularly interesting history. I had Cheers playing on my phone while I drew this but no similarity is intended. It’s a classic show but it would have been better without the distracting laugh tracks.

Flower Doodle

playing around with some markers.

I can't stop playing with the pattern maker in illustrator! ❤️

Playing around with drawing with the ink dropper, I really like this guy. And you can tell I took the pic before the ink dried because you can see the shadow on the page.

A4 test piece for A2 piece to come. Playing with colour

I've been playing around with this different colors on this floral pattern.

Way back in '88 I was staying up late, Playing games like Donkey Kong (and of course Pac-Man was great!) Smashing barrels, chomping dots, chased by Blinky, eating Clyde- Climbing ladders, jumping fire all to make that princess mine!

Lindsey and I went to an oddities expo today. Decided to draw her as a witch haha playing with some new techniques

I used Azure markers

I know there’s probably a few decent folks worth voting for come the general election here in Scotland I’ll settle on, though for the most part the loudest mouthpieces seem to just scream ‘bell-end’ to me... I was playing around with Google Translate and various sentences I’d jotted down, and opted to go with the closest approximation from English into German for ‘I’m voting for Muppets’, which is 'Ich stimme fur Muppets'. ‘Ich stimme’ read to me as ‘itch stim’ for whatever reason (anglophone and neurodivergent here), which seems rather fitting as the thought of the worst candidates getting in is liable to have us all come out in stress rashes, am I right?

Playing around with anagram generators for inspiration this time around, as you do.

I really liked the style that I used for one of the most recent labels I did for @abominationbrewingco and @snitzcreekbrewery so I decided to mess with it a bit more. Just a quick thing. I want to draw more animals in this style. This is for me, and my wife, and my daughter. Stay strong. This is for everyone. This is for you. Stay strong. No matter what you do on a day to day basis or what you go through. You are a strong person.

Playing with Word Art

Playing with watercolor markers.

I had fun playing with some new markers last night.

I'm playing around with a new color palette on this one. I may try a few now that I know about the recolor tool in illustrator!

The end of one sketchbook and journey, with another to begin shortly!

One last thing before I go to bed here…
