IF: Snow

Being a massive Stanley Kubrick fan, the first image that popped into my head for this weeks Illustration Friday topic was obviously a snow man. After drawing the most unoriginal snow man ever I had a rethink 
and decided to draw one of the iconic scenes from the Shining. 

Hope you enjoy!!

IF: Glow


       
        
The past week I've been incorporating some of John Kenn's techniques into my own drawings. 
This is taken from a doodle I done while applying for a job over the phone. I was going 
to post the original doodle as well but it escaped into the real world.

Hope you enjoy!!

Sketch book 11

The Kenn Brigade
I've been a massive fan of John Kenn's 'Post-it note monsters' since first discovering
his work about a year ago and about two weeks ago I was given one of his books plus 
a new set of fine liners. This plus the lack of employment has giving me the time to produce
this image in Kenn's style.


If you enjoy this image then you MUST go have a look at John Kenn's work. 
It makes this doodle look like a turd.

Computer Sketch 1

        I finally got round to buying myself a graphics tablet for my computer.
I picked it up from the post office this morning at around 10 and since then I've not left it
alone. I don't think I'll be able to leave the house under my own free will any time
soon.

Hope you enjoy!!

IF: Zoom

I don't really have the time to put much effort into this weeks Illustration Friday.
So I've just done this very quick doodle of a guy who's accidentally clicked 'zoom in'
on one of  his contact lenses.

Hope you enjoy!

Sketch book 8

  Using a quote from the Neil Young song I've been listening to
for the past week (Powderfinger). Which I then miss quoted, due to the fact that I had one eye
on what I was doing and another on the footie match I was watching.
The original quote is 
"Look out mama there's a white boat comin' up the river"

Hope you enjoy anyway!

Sketch book 7

Did the bottom half of this page a few months ago, when I was creating my cover picture 
then over time Ive filled in the top half with my first and probably only attempt 
at poetry.

Hope you enjoy it.

Sketch book 5

He had always expected this day to come, ever since that dreadful night in 1976 during the third round of the south-west district's bi-annual Boggle championship play-offs.
 But maybe not so soon.

 Derek couldn't put his finger on it but the new pocket-sized umbrella, which he had just paid his final down payment on, had, to his mind, a major design flaw.

Commodore Terry and Larry Ness.

                                           Larry Ness                                          Commodore Terry (self-proclaimed)

As the stories go, Commodore Terry and his second in command Larry Ness have circumnavigated the seven seas twice (clockwise and anti-clockwise), found an eighth sea which they claim is five times the size of the Pacific Ocean and is found between the Indian Ocean and the Irish Sea, once beat the Kraken and Moby Dick in a fight after they tried to hustle them in a game of tic-tac-toe and once happy slapped Lord Nelson just before the Battle of Trafalgar and got away with it.

IF: Crooked

 Like with most of my art collage projects I could never be arsed planning for too long and would jump straight into the project with very little planning. Well this no different as after only three ideas  ( two being the same idea) I've decided to go with my first doodle.

Sketch Book 1




I went to town the other day for some art supplies. I got myself a Moleskine sketch book, a graphite pencil with the idea of looking more professional. I sat on the pencil on the bus home. £1.14 and my professional image down the drain within ten minutes.
