Sunday Sketchbook (And Progress!)

Remember when I painted a skateboard for SkaterAid 2013? That was pretty sweet! Just the other day, I recieved a call for art for this year's SkaterAid (it's going to be the last one too) and I knew I had to participate again. So I dug up an old skateboard from my basement and started working on an idea.

I usually spend a day or so just...thinking. What do I want to paint? What will I paint? What haven't I painted yet? And I go though my usual themes: girl's face, birds, hearts, skulls, etc... And I came up with a fox. I haven't painted a fox in awhile, let's go with that.

Sketching! And a possible title? I'm not sure yet.

First layers of paint.

More and more layers of piant. 

I don't have any concrete plans for this and I'm doing my usual winging it. So we'll see how this goes! I'll take plenty of photos along the way!

On My Desk Wednesday

Well, this was several Wednesdays ago...seems as though I've hit a bit of a summer slump.

It always starts out as a sketch in red pencil.

First a wash of a light tan color. Then outline with a new Sharpie.

Adding shadows and the main colors.

More and more...

Then stamp my name!

All done!
