Doodle

A meeting doodle, it was a good meeting so not a bored doodle just a doodle...

Work day out

Last week i had my first day out with my new job. We made the trip up from Brighton to London to have a mooch around some museums and art galleries which was great! I didn't get much sketching done but i did do some....

Doodle pads

I have just started a new job as a pre vis animator at Black rock studio and have resurected my doodle pad which sits between me and the keyboard. I use this to doodle rubbish and draw things that i have seen (hence the little boy from the "UP" trailer i watched, and if i am being good, to rough out scenes or ideas that i am going to animate. Here are a couple of pages from the new job. They are generally collections of ref that form the starting point to an anim.

Anyway back to work for me :o)

Nice day for a bit of a sketch.

Another wednesday another day sketching in the smoke with Annes and Tim with a guest appearance from Ross Seen as it was a cold day we thought the southbank would be a good spot! after a couple of hours the cold got to much so we headed into the tate modern where conviently there is a cafe at the top with a great big window looking out across london, perfect! Had a play with some water colours blocking in the shapes then drawing over the top with ink. Didn't fit on the page hence the odd composition :o) thanks to annes for the loan of the paints.

Here are the other sketches from yesterdays sketchathon, i really must sort out a scanner!

Sketching in London

So today Annes, Tim and me went into town to do a bit of sketching we started in the british museum but it was rammed so after a sandwich we moved onto the streets of soho to get a bit of peace :o) the sketch below isn't soho, i will post them soon, but i quite like it as the final sketch of the day heading back to waterloo. A good day!

learning to draw on a wacom!

I was given a wacom tablet to learn how draw on my computer and use photoshop and this is my first effort. I think it will take a long time to find all the cool brushes and get used to working in layers, but here we go, to the future!!

My first sketchcrawl

Sketching in pen to try and train myself to think more before putting the mark down.
