Weekly sketches up date

Ok, so I did do some urban sketching with Pete again this past week..but there not very good this week. Mostly I think because I was really excited about the character designs I was working of for the new children's book dummy I'm working on based off a story April is writing that involves our favorite thing...Cats! So enjoy!

Weekly sketches up date!

On going Sketch Blog

Ok, So now I'm going to keep an on going blog of my weekly sketches to get into the habit!

Playing with printers

Hey all! I 'm finally back to my blog. I've been doing a lot of sketching lately so I will be posting them as they come now to keep my blog fresh. I recently tried to print out my sketches on watercolor paper in a light grey scale so I would no have to transfer or redraw my finished sketch the old way. I found not only did I loose a lot of the line quality but it never really came out as nice as my original sketch. Also It will save my poor wrist from the pain of pressing into the watercolor paper through the photocopy that has messy graphite on the back of it. So here is my test, the lines my printer produced did not really smudge when I applied water and paint! I think with a better (and larger) printer in time it will work even better.
