Didn’t have any ideas this morning, so I drew a tree, trying to make it look like a cyprus in Monterey.
Looks like I got carried away with the angle when photographing. I think I overcorrected about perfectly.

Busy busy day. I drew a little at the laundromat:

To start the day, here’s a lady I passed in the park on my way to work, playing recorder on a bench.

Today’s challenge: a French town square.
I was thinking of what to draw when the town square came to mind, because I was speaking what little French I know to myself as a bit of a game. I dismissed it right away, then failing to come up with anything else I wanted to try, revisited it. I thought, I’ll only draw a bunch of box buildings and some cafe tables. It’ll be boring and useless. Well, I thought again, I have a phone that can lookup pictures of anything. So I’m on the train with some lovely reference photos. Let’s see what comes of it.
Here’s the sketch from the train.
Here’s the photo I used as reference.
Final image at the top of the post. I took a picture after color and before laying some detailed lines down, but I accidentally deleted it while clearing out other bad snaps.

Another study for the Weasel Thing.
It’s the start of my year and I have some new goals, or a new commitment to old dreams. In pursuit of that, my first workday at 27 was very productive, rather tough, and a bit too long (I need to learn to control my newfound power). I’d already decided what I would draw today, and on the train home I was more ready than ever.
A long day at work, a plan to make it better, a drawing in hand, and time to think before bed. d(^_^)b

Today was a wonderful birthday, though I count yesterday as part, since I haven’t been home yet. I spent my day in Santa Monica and Venice.

A busy day yesterday: I didn’t put single mark on paper, though I did jot this doodle down in my phone. It’s a friend falling from a cliff… and he’s still my friend.

From Brushes on the iPhone, this one is done just before falling asleep.

Here’s study for a little animation I’d dreamed up a couple months ago, featuring a weasel.

Watched Wristcutters tonight (watching it again with commentary now). The middle of the film is in the ruins of a desert theme park, with this little truck. One of the stars if the show, for sure.
