Edges, Shapes, Volumes
I seem to “getting” the lessons of this buildings course more than I ever have in the past. Learning how to sketch really is an ongoing process. You think you get it one time, but then you realize there was so much more to get. I keep getting more and more every single time! My…

Collage Pages
My new mystery box has started and this inspired some collage pages in my sketchbook! (If you are doing Curse of Humanrah by Cosy Killer, there are spoilers in these images!) I like the double page spreads much better than the side by side but very different pages. I’m still challenged by the mental block…

First Week of Buildings Class
The first week of Buildings class, and I’m already behind! I keep promising myself I will NOT consider myself behind, because when I do, that’s when I quit. I don’t want to quit, I love this class far too much! (And the people! The people are so great!) I have thusly given myself permission to…

Buildings Begins

Sketch Kit and Color Blocks
Things are moving a bit slow around here this past week. I’m back to a tighter lockdown situation as COVID-19 cases are on the rise and I’m in an “extreme high risk” area. I have lots of unfinished pages but a few finished ones. Some random sketches and collage, little bits and pieces from my…

Getting My Sketch Mojo Back
Time to get my sketching mojo back, and dust off the sketchbook. (And let go of my negative self-judgment about dropping the ball.) What better way to get back to it than to dive in with something colorful! There is little more colorful than Aloha Shirts! I bought an alphabet stamp set for my dates.…

Early Summer
May, June, and July had very little sketching. This was an attempt to paint water and trees. Oh did it fail hard! Collage page with wine labels. More collage and some pen sketches. I do love the TWSBI pens!
