New drawing and new postcards for sale

Hình ảnh
I made this drawing in Photoshop for fun, and ended up kind of liking it. The original sketchbook version is always better though, at least to me. Anyhow, I thought it would look cute as a little print, so I got four more drawings together and made a postcard set that you can buy on my Etsy shop . Each one is shiny and colorful and about 4" x 6". Here are the other ones...all stuff I've posted before, but tweaked to be more "print worthy." I am making larger prints of some of these that will also be on my Etsy store shortly. I'm also working on some new Skadi prints. You can click this drawing to go to the shop! Thanks! Also, thanks for all the encouragement on my last post. I'll definitely be posting more drawings from my hill folk project soon.

Old and new

Finally, some new stuff. A seaside-colored girl. Cora, being dreary. I've been drawing a lot of models lately. I think these ones are from the Urban Outfitters website and America's Next Top Model. Here's some sketchbook stuff I had posted earlier, before my blog crash. First are some criminal man heads. Renaissance faire girls. Johanna and Klara Söderberg from the Swedish band First Aid Kit. Thanks for coming back! Don't forget to check my Tumblr from time to time to see drawings and doodles that I don't always post here. ^u^

2010, sketchbook #5

I'm nearly done with re-blogging all my old art! A lot of stuff was left out, but I got most the stuff I still kinda like. Anyhow, here's more sketchbook stuff from 2010. I like how the two girls in the bottom corner came out on the one above. These ones are kind of hard to see, but they're unfinished drawings of this feral little girl called Genie. Her story is really sad. Google her if you're in the mood to feel really shitty. Cats. Forest girls- one of my favorite things to draw besides hillbillies. Highschool friends. I still want to make some comics about the dumb stuff that went on back then, but I don't know if I'll ever get around to it for real. More coming soon!

2010, Sketchbook from Brandy

My good friend Brandy gave me this beautiful sketchbook that she got from the Renaissance fair last May (at least I think it was May), and I vowed to only draw wood nymphs and forest girls in it. I have yet to fill it completely, but here are a few of the drawings that I have in it. Here's a photo of how cute the sketchbook is. More soon!

Just more sketchbook stuff. I think this is the last 2009 post. Next up are drawings from one of my favorite movies!

2009, sketchbook #1

So here's when I started carrying actual sketchbooks around, instead of drawing on loose leaf paper. I think it unintentionally created a change in how I draw. On loose leaf paper, I could do a drawing, say "Oh, this sucks, I'll throw it out", and then start over. But you can't really filter in a sketchbook, unless you want to throw away the whole book, or rip pages out. In other words, it becomes less about "performing" on paper, and more about just drawing for yourself, which is a lot more freeing in a way. The drawings above were me trying to figure out a design for a mini-comic I wanted to do. I never got around to it, though. There are a lot of drawings of little Appalachian wall-eyed waifs in my sketchbooks. I think they're cute in a pathetic and sad way. High school friends. I also always meant to do a comic about these people. I have a bunch roughed out, but I never finished them. Happy Christmas! More soon!
