Day 34.5: The Humpty Dumpty Doll

So here is my little Humpty Dumpty doll. I wanted to do something in watercolour/coloured pencils. It's nice to take a break from a broken computer every now and again. Watercolour isn't really my thing yet, but I'm liking it the more I use it.

Day 32: I Did Not Wait Until the Last Minute

I did not wait until the last minute to work on this sketch, but it wasn't until a few minutes ago that I remembered I hadn't posted it! These are just some ideas I had for creating a book about Humpty Dumpty. These are only sketches to give me an idea of where I want to go. Usually I'm not set on one thing, but the original idea I had in my head and the idea I put on paper are pretty similar. The one in the lower left is the direction I plan on going with this drawing. 

Day 31 Already?

I'm not sure what happened, but I've completely lost track of time. I have been sick lately, but I just realized that I haven't posted sketches for 2 weeks now. I have been working on drawings, though and wanted to share:

From this point on my sketches will be slightly different, and hopefully posted more often.

Day 30.5: The Bear

I was hoping to finish this much earlier. It's not really finished finished, but maybe as close as it's going to get:

Hope he's cute enough for you!

Day 29: I'm Still Alive!

So I'm still alive. I don't know where the days go anymore. I'm still in the process of changing jobs, so it's difficult to get things done during the week. I'm going to play catch-up again this weekend, and also make up a game plan for the future. Hang in there, I know I still am!

Day 25: A First Look - Tobias

I had decided to do a sketch of my cat Tobias back when she was just a kitten. I'm at work and I never know how much time I'll have to work on these things. I started working on it and thought, "Hey, this will make a cute painting when I'm done". So I'll work on this whenever I can at work. Without further Ado the beginning sketches:

And a detail of the face:

I wish I had time to work on all my drawings at work. The Photoshop there is much more recent than mine at home. Ah well, if I stay I'd end up doing more work and less art.

I didn't get the chance to finish my bug illustration, because my computer is threatening to die on me again. I swear it starts out perfect, but after a while it gets gummed up. Even purging the histories doesn't seem to help. Ah well, I'll keep trying. If worse comes to worse I'll have all the initial drawing done, and have to go back later and finish the inking/colouring later. I really hope I can talk my husband into getting another computer. (Maxed out credit card go go go.)

Day 23: A Shoe is a Shoe

My great achievement for today is creating a shoe! More stuff to come later.
