I'll take a quiet life.




finished my work for the night. so i drew this sketchy-looking thom yorke as a reward. but i fucked it up and didn't put the blue pencils on a separate layer. but maybe it worked out okay. i'm fine. i went to abingdon once to visit a friend. she wasn't well and spent most of my visit in bed, eating mackerel out of a tin. it snowed, but no-one told me, and when i woke up most of it had melted. later i went into oxford for a sandwich. there was a girl in a fashion boutique and she had no customers and so she picked up a dress and danced with it in front of a mirror. when she saw some bear-looking dude could see her from his seat in the sandwich shop she smiled and waved. i can't remember if i smiled back. i probably did but it would have been slow.

Natalia

Derivative practicing. I looked at poses in fashion magazines, and also looked at Cameron Stewart's sketchbook. Ended up with this, which looked so Black Widow, I might as well just go ahead and call her Natalia.

What a shamelessly juvenile drawing - a hot spy chick. Not sure what I've learned from the exercise. I guess at some point I'm meant to draw stuff like this without having to look at photo references.

Don't give up the day job.


Kind Words
Exactly the sort of thing I think when anyone compliments my doodles. I'm sure you mean well.
