Recently I went on a trip to Florida. Ate seafood (fried Grouper), rolled around in the waves of the ocean and saw an Art Fair. "Oh" I also ate probably close to 30 cookies, they were delicious by the way. Now I am writing about this because as an Artist you have to constantly struggle with time management. For me personally when I am on a roll, it get incredibly productive, but when I have to stop what I am doing I tend to take a long while to get back up to full speed.
This is what I am experiencing at the moment. I was gone for about 4 days and literally lost all momentum. But slowly I am catching back up. So for this month I decided to do portraits done with pen. More specifically prisma color marker and using an extra fine shape pen. the strategy was to use the prisma color marker to make a rough sketch of myself and then to use the extra fine shape marker for delicate lines. Later iterations of the strategy I begin to use different color markers, namely yellow. I did this more so because I ran out of the color blue I was using and the next blue marker I had was simply too dark to create an under drawing.
In the future you might start to see more written words in my sketchbook. That is because I have begun journaling my ideas more in my sketchbooks. A little side note the first portrait for this week has comedian Drew Lynch's signature on the top right.
This weeks digital drawing consists of poorly drawn Squirtle's and cartoon character from Poke'mon. Please enjoy this weeks installment of Pierson-Land, Week 10.
