Filling up the sketchbook daily again. I try to do a couple pages while watching summer shows, but most of the designs don’t make it past the thumbnail stage.

Things have been a bit hectic no real time to do larger illustrations. I do try to just do a reference sketch just to stay on routine every couple of days.

Caught up with the first couple of episodes of Attack on Titan it’s great to have it back. Besides that a couple of great shows are coming back but of course gotta make time for Persona 5. I have been just filling up pages in my sketchbook while finishing up some shows that don’t require my full attention.

Took sometime to finish up the end of a sketchbook I have in the pile. Very excited Attack on Titan is now back I started a couple of sketches and should drop some color in them when I have some free time.

Really happy the winter darkness is over with and the sun is out until almost 6:30pm. It’s almost time for running season to start up again. I really liked a couple of Oscar photo’s that were taken on the red carpet, I had to do a couple of illustrations. Besides that I am working on a couple of smaller design projects but still making time for kind of daily more like every couple of days illustrations.

Trying to spend more time actually completing an illustration. I really enjoy the quick sketch process but lately I know I need to add final colors and render colors more often.

Lately I haven’t had the time to do larger illustrations working on a couple of other design projects. These are weekend portrait studies and a meet the artists meme.

Recently a couple of people have asked me to do drawings of them just quick portrait stuff. I like the challenge of looking at a face and breaking down what makes that persons face stand out. Also the usual late night illustrations.
Finally, I created a ONE PAGE PORTFOLIO. My main website is mostly for illustration but I thought it was important to have a site that showed my html/technical design level.

Super excited my sketchbook with all my work from 2016 arrived from Lulu books. Second year in a row the colors and paper stock were top tier all the way.
Slowly adjusting back to a normal sleep schedule after vacation is always rough. A few nights I started a couple of sketches and the next day I couldn’t figure out what I was doing. That said it really helps to just draw faces to get some ideas down.

Happy New Year can’t believe 2016 is done and over with. The last week of the year I try to organize a number of projects and scan my drawings into an end of the year folder for the annual sketchbook.
Last year my final sketchbook was 50 pages with 18 full color pages. This year its 83 pages with 18 full color pages. I can’t wait to get the physical hardbound version of this book. It’s nice to actually hold something physical that I made.
Above is the final design for Vol:2
Above is a much earlier concept I was playing with

Getting down to wrapping up 2016. I really want to cross a couple more illustrations off the list. Hopefully like in year’s past the last week of the year should be a good time to catch-up.
