TS - Brown on Blue v.6.0

Brown on Blue v.6.0 - Colour Pencil, Pencil

Another one on the Brown on Blue Theme. It originally was a bit boring (see below) but cutting the picture up and gluing it back together made a nice difference. At least I think it did.

BP - Sunrise

Sunrise - B6 Pencil, Colour Pencil

A little bonus picture from yesterday. I like grey, especially soft and (as odd as it might sound) warm grey tones.

TS - Scratches

Scratches - Pencil, Colour Pencil, Tape

This was actually made yesterday, I just didn't get it uploaded last night.

Explanation

It's been a while since my last picture and and that can be blamed on me spending some time with visiting family. At least for a couple of the days but any picture that I haven't uploaded since last Wednesday fully goes on the account of me being too lazy and proves that my fears of loosing steam on this project were real. As soon as I put the pencil down for only one night it becomes progressively harder each day to pick it up again.

TS - Digital Circle Training

Digital Circle Training - Made with Sketches on the ipad

Another sad day for my drawings. These are nowhere near the quality I like to uphold myself to but I just didn't feel it today. Maybe that is OK though, it is unrealistic to always be in the mood for something. I think my more important goal which I am working on is anyways to work on something I enjoy more regularly and by forcing myself into this routine of doing it every night I get away from continuing to work on work stuff, get away from the internet (mostly a bane to my leisure time) as well as create the opportunities to be creative on those days that I am "feeling it".

TS - Meeting Notes

Meeting Notes - Notebook, Sticky Note, Pen, Marker, Pencil, Colour Pencil, White Out

After yesterday I needed a bit more raggedness and less confinement in the way I draw lines today. Well the result can be seen above. It was created from a little doodle on a sticky note (see below) during a meeting. I turned the sticky note into something a bit more once at home.

TS - Brown on Blue v.4.1 (unfinished)

Brown on Blue v.4.1 - Pencil and Colour Pencil

Not a good day for sketching. I started with this sketch being all excited about recreating Brown on Blue v.4.0 but once I had drawn out the circles and started filling them with different tones of blue I quickly became unsatisfied with what I was producing. Somehow the colours were missing the vividness you can give them when you draw more free hand, mixing them and pushing the pencil down hard sometimes and only barely touching the paper other times. This was too mechanical for today and didn't feel like me drawing. I needed something that would be rough around the edges* but as soon as I had stared with this everything went sour (see above).
