Piano Man


Pen


Sketched this while waiting for my wife to finish looking around the store in the mall.  One of the few reasons that I agree to go to the mall with her is that I can bring my sketchbook and sketch while she's busy in the store. The mall is an excellent source for some life drawing.


 Our mall has multiple stories and its interesting to see people from above or from below. It also has a glass ceiling so with the sun shining through it creates beautiful patterns along the interior.  I just wanted to draw it all.  And that's something I need to work on is drawing backgrounds to place my figures in. This is a good place to practice it.

 In the Macy's store there is a piano guy that I always enjoy  sketching and listening to. He plays a lot of Beatles tunes and its awesome. I was sketching him yesterday and found it interesting that here we are two people doing art and doing it in public.  It was interesting because people would come and listen to him and I had a couple of people look over my shoulder to see that I was drawing him.  I love art.

Noticed some  DC Gals on my commute have this mentality.

Oh Dandelion.

Pencil and Digital

Came up with this idea after brain storming on the Illustration Friday topic REVERSE.  Going to try to paint this up in watercolor.  But for now just some pencil and simple Photoshop coloring.  Thoughts and Critiques most welcomed!

A Wolf At The Door

Pencil, Digital


I love listening to Radiohead when drawing, or really doing anything.  Sketched this one on the metro took it home redrew it and added some color and text in Photoshop. Pi Yow!
