Here is a little sketch I drew this morning. It's my warm up exercise for the day and my #Twoodle for this week using the words Ballet and Turtle, suggested by @soelver and @JerseyGirlDraws.

A quick sketch I doodled this morning.

Well.. quick meaning:

Drawing time: 5 min

Scan/Coloring in Photoshop: 10 min

Uploading work to blogger with awful internet connection: 35 min. 

Sigh.

This is a little sketch I drew this morning for something I made up just for fun: #Twoodle.

The words I chose to create this are Panda and Rain.

Hi there, just a quick post for today. I'm busy working on several deadlines while battling the flu... hehe.. not ideal but what can you do, huh? Deadlines are deadlines.

Here is a pic of a page of one of my sketchbooks. It's filled with little characters that appear out of nowhere for no particular reason. Most of my skecthes are like that. :o)

How about you, how is your sketchbook?

Illustration Friday

-Mirror-

This is a little sketch I drew yesterday for Illustration Friday. 

It has been ages since I contributed! I used to do it religiously every week a few years back and that really helped me build my portfolio. Now I'm busy with work but I sort of miss participating. Yesterday I realized that I can still participate by quickly sketching something and use it as warm up sketches once a week.

If you are an artist and haven't tried it, you definitely should. They give you a word every week and you draw something related to it. The word for this week is Mirror. Everyone can participate, artists of all skill levels and now they have a section for kids to participate too, which I think is a wonderful idea. 

Don't be shy and give it a try. :o)

I have been sick for two weeks now with bronchitis. Boo..

I'm resting at home and trying to get better for the Holidays.

Meanwhile I have been writing some stories and

editing one in particular that I really like and think it could work. Let's see..

Cross your fingers for me, will ya? ;o)

Above is a little sketch that I drew this morning.

Mice always seem to appear on my sketchbook

even when I'm not thinking about them.
