It’s a sketchbook… it should have sketchy elements… correct??? When I sketch, it’s not pretty… it’s scribbly… lines over lines… items sketch over other items… it’s about placement… it’s about fitting key objects within the drawing… very a perfect, clean drawing… pencil… ink outline… erase… or not to erase… that is the question when creating in my sketchbook… lately, I have not erased much and I’ve allowed mistakes to remain… it’s my sketchbook… it’s my learning book… it’s for fun… leave it in, I say… let the process show through lighter paint or pencil…
Today’s sketch is extremely messy… you can click on the photos to see them larger…
PAINTED… you don’t see a lot of the before messiness… I used watercolor pencils for most of this painting… I don’t think I really like the set I purchased or maybe I don’t like this media… although they are easy to use when not in my art studio…
This is the original photo prompt…
Back to another sketch from the other day… lots of lines and there will probably be more… I haven’t figure out my background or tabletop pattern… sorry about the lighting… photographing while in bed is not ideal for quality… lol
This last one was erased and it was messy… especially that little wooden thingy for honey… I struggled with the size and then the angled and the honey pot jar is still wonky… lol… I never claim to be logical in my drawing skills or perspective… just draw… just colorize: paint, pencil, whatever… fun fun fun or forget it…
I am about halfway through my original MOCA sketchbook… might have to film me flipping the pages… a peek into my colorful world of learning… of experimenting… of hopefully improving…
Sooooo… expect more messy sketches… it’s a SKETCHbook!
