Sketchbook Update – Nothing rhymes with Orange

I started this sketchbook way back in October of 2010 and, about a month ago, I finally completed its final page. I was filling pages at a good pace and was aiming to have it completed by early fall ’11 but, as it inevitably seems to happen, I was forced to slow down towards the end [...]

Sketchbook Update – Christmas 2011 Edition

And so ends the Holiday season. New Year’s is just around the corner and I have two sets of Sketchbook Updates before I actually dive into my current sketchbook (which is looking pretty empty at the moment, I admit). I’ve been very busy over the last few weeks with real life stuff (the good kind [...]

Sketchbook Update – It’s been too long…

Because of scanner woes (and just regular ol’ woes as well) it has been literally half a year since I posted scans from my sketchbook. That’s much longer than I would’ve liked but, to be honest, there hasn’t been much activity in the sketchbook front anyway. I aim to change that and this post is [...]

Sketchbook Update – Summertime Edition

The weather is finally, FINALLY starting to get nice and that means more time spent drawing at the beach. But not quite yet though and not with this batch which was done mostly in the steely cold interiors of my workplace. A good set overall but I need to tweak my batch setting in Photoshop because [...]

Sketchbook Update – Slowing Down Edition

My tablet has spoiled me. I’ve been slowing down with my sketchbook so much that I’ve actually caught up with the huge head start I had earlier this year. I like working on the digital stuff but I shouldn’t neglect my sketchbook any further. At the very least, I’ll make sure to have one of [...]

Sketchbook Update – Consistency Edition

If there is one thing I want out of my art right now, it would be the ability to be consistent with it. About a month ago, I was doing what I thought was some pretty good stuff in my sketchbook. No more than two weeks afterwards and I experienced a sudden decline in the [...]

Sketchbook Update – Epiphany Edition

This website was always meant to primarily showcase my artwork and it dawned on me recently that every time I post something that I’ve done to the front page, it’s always as a very small thumbnail that you have to click on to enlarge. The reason why I do it like that is because I [...]

Sketchbook Update – Deadlines!

Procrastination and my uncanny ability to get easily distracted has resulted in me having to complete what I should have spread out over a couple of months in just a few weeks. The Sketchbook Project was finished on time and I don’t feel like I ever rushed anything in it so that’s something to be [...]

The Sketchbook Project: It’s Finished!

The Sketchbook Project: It's Finished!

I dedicated the majority of the last three weeks of my life to it but it’s finally done, my sketchbook is now in the Brooklyn Art Library. It’ll be available for viewing for a few weeks starting on February 19th and it’ll go on tour around the country until late July. Excitement! Above is a [...]

Sketchbook Update – Closing Out The Year Edition

And so another year ends. This website has changed a lot since the end of last year and I’m sure my whim will bring forth even more changes in 2011 (I already have a new website design in mind that I’d like to run through some people). I like to think of this site as [...]
