i am taking a class called drawing methods. the assignment was to “have an idea. start the idea. forget the idea. change the idea. alter the idea.” um. ok.
this started out as pencil drawing, then i scanned it and vectored it in illustrator, then printed it out and used pencil on the printout – responding to and drawing on the shapes… it was fun. i am thinking of silkscreening the first guy in on the second line. i like him. he is little billy and the giraffe…
ps i tried the custom photoshop brush thing with little billy and yes i agree – its pretty cool.

Making custom photoshop brushes has become habit forming.

Here’s some sketches and color studies done in my awesome new sketchbook which Keegan constructed for me. The paper is not too thin, yet takes pencil, ink and watercolor really well.
