June/July Sketchbook Pages #1




Picture on the left from Posespace.com. Figure drawing on the right. If you need figure/gestural drawing models for practice I would highly recommend Pose Space or Croquis Cafe.

 I felt her bum looked to angular in the original drawing (above) so I rounded it off in the below drawing.

Throwing Knife Animation

I wanted to try out this idea of taking the abstraction of a spinning motion (the spinning of the knife) and having it transform into the circular board the throwing knife is being thrown towards.

Dicky Dicky Dinosaur Book Rough Classroom Version

Here are some excerpts from the book I was designing for the Dicky Dicky Dinosaur song by Charlotte Diamond. I'm not too pleased with how it is colored( I only had prismacolor colored pencils), but the images are still clear enough to be good visuals for the kids.













I'd like to digitally color the drawings and make them look like more official illustrations (especially since I've got a new and better working Wacom tablet). The teacher that I worked for and made this book for, is trying to find a way for me to make visuals for classrooms and sell them to other schools in the district. Another co worker of mine let me know about this company that will print professional looking books. So once I finish the official illustrations I could organize them on the page with the text, print them as a book, and then hopefully sell that version.
