sketchbook

New sketchbook time again? That it is. Credit to one of my workmates for inspiring the title here, hehehehe. It's been a busy few days here at Bleu HQ... '^^ :-)

The first page of my sketchbook #3. Akiyo Noguchi - a japanese rock climber, bronze medalist of 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo.

Taken me a while to finish this one - not feeling very focused lately. Also, I restricted myself to using Bic’s yellow ink, which is way more vibrant than the cheap 10-colour ink click pens that I usually use.

I like the recursive drawings they're actually really fun

Did this for a sketchdaily group and wanted to share. Hope you like.

Gouache in my sketchbook.

One of my first attempts at "urban" sketching, from photo reference. Watercolour pencils and ink.

Words of wisdom that a friend came out with during a Lord Of The Rings Extended Editions film night over the weekend jumpstarted my creative juices this time around. :-)

My attempt at following a tutorial on academic drawing, drapery from photo reference.

This is the very first page of my very first "real" sketchbook, somewhere from the end of 2017, when I started drawing.

I painted this in my sketchbook! I made what it feels like (to me) when I have an anxiety/panic attack. This took longer then intended lol.

Having a go at something other than narwhals and belugas today... bowhead whales namely! I really like how this one turned out. :-)

Just a moon Knight drawing. purely pen. took me all day and i was filled with fear trying not to make a mistake lol

It's a sperm whale and underground hip-hop kind of day in my world right now.

Ingredients for making a Korean side dish (banchan), kkakdugi. I referenced Maanghi’s version.

Being autistic and neurodivergent means I’m liable to mishear things quite a bit, especially when watching films where the sound mixing is utter shite (thanks sensory differences!). On that note, there’s a bit towards the end of Alien where Parker shouts “get out of the room” which I always interpreted as “get ready to roll” for years on end. Only recently did I realise how wrong I was! Considering it was the final act of the film, I guess I can’t be blamed for assuming as such, right? If you know, you know as they say...
