Start with a sketch

In Art school they taught us to always start each project with a sketch.  I think this can apply to more than just a painting or an illustration.  In fact is something that I have been trying to do to start each day.  It also works very well when I am stuck on something or in kind of a "funk."

The above image is the second round of this little character sketch.  I will keep trying to start each day with a sketch and see how it works out.  So far so good.

Shades

Shades of grey make up most of our day and it sure is a shame when someone mean makes it even darker.  Oh yeah... and check out her glasses!

I don't usually do grey scale images but this chapter book, "Little Garuda," was a ton of fun.

Surfing adventures!


Moving to the Oregon coast last year let me try out one of my dreams:

SURFING

I am by no means very good, but I sure do enjoy it.  This picture was taken in December by my Father.  I love the photo and the memories are awesome.  The night before we went out under a full moon and surfed Indian Beach.  This wasn't the most well thought out thing I have ever done but it was one of the funnest nights I have ever had.  The moon was so bright you could see the waves just enough to know which one you wanted to ride, it was also hard enough that the rides that you did get made you love every second of it.

Thanks for a great night and a great photo Dad.

Here's another photo of the beach that we were surfing the night before.
