So I had a dream where everyone lived in shoes. The shoes reflected your personality or your soul ("sole"! Ha...) Everyone drove their shoes, or more precisely, rode their shoe vechicles like horses; "Whoaaa there boy!" I passed this dream in one of my...
I drew this one whilst listening to one of my housemate's albums he made, funny how his story told through music made me pick up my pen and sketch this little number... J'ai dessiné celui-ci en écoutant un album que mon colocataire a fait, c'est drôle...
Music. Such a distraction. I was trying to accomplish another drawing, (one day I shall put all my ideas onto paper!) and got sketching my friend who was playing the piano instead. I'm not complaining at all however; the outcome is better when I don't...
Many people when they see this drawing ask me: "Who IS he?! He looks familiar!" Errrr...I don't know. I don't recall his name! Only this I am certain of: Yes,he does exist in real life. I did find his face in a magazine and I did find it very intriguing...
They say that doodling is a good insight into one's thoughts. Interesting. Me, I find doodling inconsciously very hard to achieve. Even when I sketch drawings I take consciencious decisions during the process. Whereas one of my housemate's, who also draws,...
I don't like this picture, my house mate who draws as well likes it though. He says it still displays something; why did I just scribble black everywhere? I said, "...because I saw someone else do it before." (I didn't like the outcome then either thinking...
I sketched this out quickly at work again just to force myself to practise, I know I really do have a good job don't I! I have some good ideas to skecth out similar to the style you can see in the first few posts of this blog. Jolly good, aye? Watch this...
When I first started drawing I would always draw rabbits. :) Then, when I was older I went through a stage of only drawing faces. The one pictured below is a face from my imagination, though I remember having a crush on that guy from spider man at the...
So after the initial drawing I drew last week I found myself being flooded with ideas for other sketches, other pictures. They couldn't wait, I had to capture them straight away before they vanished in shadows of cross-hatching and smudged pencil! It...
I can't figure out the emotion I've drawn here; is she scared? Looking over her shoulder at something that's following her? Is she trying to be seductive? Is she bored? What do you see? I'm welcoming comments, ideas and feedback on my drawings, so feel...
Peindre d'abord une cage avec une porte ouverte peindre ensuite quelque chose de joli quelque chose de simple quelque chose de beau quelque chose d'utile pour l'oiseau placer ensuite la toile contre un arbre dans un jardin dans un bois ou dans une forêt...
30day drawing challenge : Day#7 Crystals
Whilst in Ubud, (Bali, Indonesia), Rachel and I met an American who was taking art lessons from an old Indonesian artist. We got invited to come and see his workshop where he paints and I was blown away by the tiny details, the vibrant colours and the...
***************************************************************************************************** I had squirreled away a collection of postcards from various destinations, bars, cinemas, friends for a few years just knowing that one day they would...
Having recently moved house and invested in a fixed home phone I am able to ring my family in England from France for FREE ! I know that it has been said that doodles produced whilst chatting on the phone reveal the artist's unconscious thoughts so I...
I have decided this year to participate in the Inktober Challenge 2019 which was created in 2009 by Jake Parker who wanted to improve his drawing skills, especially using ink. Everyday in this 30 day challenge there is a new theme to draw. I have started...
Whilst I was travelling in Asia two summers ago and I'm finally going to post them, one by one, on this blog! sketch of the Indonesian landscapes... near the coffee implantations!
Frog Pondering Have you ever noticed how a frog seems to ponder? Seems to stare in the deep, murky depths? In his throat, his feelings clatter and grumble, As he draws in a deep croaky breathe. Have you seen how a frog seems to shiver? Well, in fact he...
This drawing goes with a poem: If the sky was a thin piece of paper, And the stars a small pin of light? All those on earth might ask themselves: "Whose hands prick the holes that light up the night?" A wrinkled hand so steady, so gentle, As to prick...
When I was little, I used to think birds were robotic, Mechanically geared Jerky, swift and alert. A bird's feet move without stopping, Steps, jump, skips across the earth, It's almost as if they can't stand the feel of turf. Only the reward of mealworm,...
On the Saint Jame's Way (Chemin de Saint Jacques en français ou Le Camino de Saint Jacques) What with the fatigue, the endless road streching out before us, the Sun's rays growing in heat, force... Simon made the following analogy to describe how complementary...
Dans les Pays-Bas une nouvelle technologie a été introduit qui permet les voitures electroniques de se recharger pendant qu'ils roulent sur l'autoroute ! Le rechargement sans fils est une invention geniale!
And before I knew what I was doing, I'd drawn Eragon.
I drew this one at work in the library: A man was talking on the phone evidently, my boss complimented my drawing skills but did comment: " Au lieu de dessiner le Monsieur, il faut que tu lui dises que les portables sont interdits dans la bibliotheque..."...
