Sketch face

Decided to try writing my dissertation proposal last night. I've been dreading it all semester. I filled in my name, course and matriculation number and thought, "This isn't so bad." Then I got to the bit about summarising what I plan to write about and freaked out and closed the window. Ended up doodling instead, which was much more fun.

The first page was just doodles, then on the second I was trying to caricature Rachel when I remembered that I can't do that worth a damn so ended up stalking randomly selected friends on Faceboak and just drawing them.



It feels really nice just to draw for the sake of drawing. I don't do it enough but I think I'll try to more. I always say that though...

'Tis the Seasoning

But what were the cutlery up to? Fork knows....

Drawn from life

Have a selection of crappy life drawing I did. First a "best of" selection of doodles from the end of second year:







And now for some from third year. I've been trying to work more on my tonal work as I feel I'm lacking in that particular regard:













These last few are from last week. I had a feedback session with Reinhard and the main thing he suggested was to try some different mediums, so I decided to crack out the biro and invest in some pastel paper. I think it'll take a wee while to warm up to something new though:

Filler filler filler...

I only drew the Buff-allo. Lynsey contributed the original Buffalo (modified by Kat) and the In-da-buff-allo. I'll try and get something a little more nutritious up soon...

Oh hi blog

Oh hi readers. Tommy Wiseau will always greet you with a cheery attitude, regardless of how emotional he may have been mere moments beforehand.

David Mecham

Sure, David Beckham is a better footballer now, but at what cost? At the cost of his humanity, that's what. He's a cyborg now. He's David Mecham.

A blog-post a day keeps the monsters away.

Tiger bread is all well and good, but don't eat a real tiger tail because the tiger might just eat you in retaliation. Then when it tries to regrow it's reclaimed tail your DNA will be all mixed in and you might just find yourself in this sticky situation...
