art, comics, opinions
I fill several Pentel Pocket Brushes with various dye-based fountain pen inks. Some brands I’ve enjoyed include J. Herbin, Pilot Iroshizuku, and Robert Oster.
I’ve made the very obvious discovery that the supplies I never use are great for just brain-off doodle time.
The green Tombow Fudenosuke is a really similar shade to the random highlighter (it’s a Bic brite liner, but do I want to make a tag for it? not really…) I’ve probably had kicking around in a drawer for 10 years at least. It still feels like a big waste to use a Fudenosuke to color random stuff, but that’s the only practical use of the yellow imo…
Colored inks are for doodling. Dunno how those red splotches of paint got in there though.
Meeting doodle. Which means no reference and I don’t know what tigers look like.
For this year’s Stanza show, where artists are assigned a poem to draw inspiration from and make art for. I got to draw for my friend Lore’s poem, which was fun and also great because there are bikes in the poem and we met via bikes. :3
The original’s available at Push/Pull along with the anthology zine with all the poetry and some additional art!
Meeting doodles.
More for the Sakura-Con Art Show, which will be on the 4th floor of the new Summit building this year, which is as far as it can possibly be from Artist Alley, because whoever is doing layouts for this con hates me specifically, I guess.
Stuff I did for the Moving in Stereo(scopic) show at Push/Pull.
I scanned the originals before I added the grey ink. Maxx did the 3-color fiddling and printed them on the riso. The prints turned out nice and 3d effect through the glasses is pretty cool.
Conference call doodles. The reverse side of this page was all notes, I swear.
Trying to use up some of the frames I’ve horded over the years. This little painting is available here.
Been stuck inside and painted some itty bitty mushrooms for Push/Pull’s Fruiting Bodies group show, opening tonight. Making work specifically for a frame is pretty fun.
This sketchblog is a dumping ground for sketches, studies, scribbles, process drawings, WIPs, disjointed ideas, OCs, commissions, trades, etc. It’s basically a catch-all repository for art I want to share.
