Sketch Along With Me!


Sketching is fun, but random. I don't know what to do with them. You'll notice several common elements in my drawings. 1) Mickey Mouse: He is my favorite 2) Faces: People are interesting to draw, especially faces and expressions. 3) They are incomplete. They also have a nice, loose quality to them that can be more appealing than some of my polished drawings. Drawing with pen forces me to make quick but thoughtful choices, which strangely feels more liberating and creative when in the process.


Note: I use to draw Pocahontas a lot when it was being released to theaters, so I wanted to see if I could still draw her . . . result = not great.


A pseudo Tinkerbell appears b/c I drew what I knew from memory . . . Result = not great. But it was fun. You'll also notice the word "franchise above her, hmm...


Mickey with the dollar ($) signs in his eyes appear b/c I'm preparing a resume for a finance position at his domain. result = N/A

Therapeutic drawing


I work to pay for school. At work, customers can be . . . not nice. I'm the type of person that likes "feel good" movies. Not a good combination. I haven't drawn for fun in a while ( and it shows, but w/e).
