More sketchbook pages

Pencils, ink and masking tape.

Small scale drawing

Some on location drawings i did down by the Ipswich docks. Each one is about 10x7cm. Kinda tricky drawing at such a small scale but still a good exercise. There are about another 10 drawings but i still dont have a scanner and taking photos of the majority of my work is a pain in the butt.

Running man

Yeah...

Dragonfly Z

Pretty unrelated to art but this is a dragonfly that flew into my kitchen last summer and hung out with me for a good 20 minutes or so. He even posed for a photo and i decided his name was to be 'Z'.

Rubber dub dub

I did this a while back in drawing class. It started out as an A3 piece of paper blackened by chalk and using a hard eraser as a pencil taking away from the black. It was pretty hard but to my surprise I got the proportions right, except for the sloping at the bottom.

Illustration: Sequential art part 2

Here is the other half of the sequential art project...






I did the whole thing based on 'Mail Art'. The decoration of envelopes and other bits of mail. Although never getting around to send the envelopes, it would have been the journey of each piece of work from point A to point B that makes it a sequential project.

Sketchbook pages

I like the idea of things being incomplete and so usually when i sit and draw i tend to miss out some details and leave things as shapes or lines. Here are some examples..


I often do quick doodles and sketches of things, mainly in continuous line. Here are some photos I took of old sketchbook pages.
