No words today: only lines and colored surfaces.

 

Today I wanted to post something bit different than my usual posts so I decided to shoot a little video showing four of my latest drawings.
I hope you like it and, um, sorry for the bad lighting, I still need to figure out where’s the best place to shoot videos at my place and how to do it etc.
Anyway, happy Friday everyone!

 

I made a zine! And it’s about bears!
You can take a peek at in a video below, or check out original drawings I used to put it together.

Sometimes when I don’t have time to seriously draw I doodle simple (usually abstract) shapes, scan and color them and save in one of my “work in progress” folders. Usually I find those simple drawings useful as additional layers when composing my illustrations.

( If you’re interested about the way I make my illustrations you can read about it here.)
So here are few of those simple doodles I made lately which may or may not end up as part of actual illustrations : )

Happy Monday! How was your weekend? Mine was pretty uneventful and laid-back (which I loved) and spent mostly making things, eating good food and listening to obscure 90′s punk rock bands! Yay!
Here is a little showcase of:

Sometimes there is nothing more relaxing than drawing a big pattern! I felt like I needed to get rd of some stress this weekend so I doodled this big piece (it’s 30×40 cm) and it was very therapeutic.

 

*messy cards*

In art, I love seeing accurately drawn, clean (and usually uninterrupted  ) lines and I’m always striving to better the quality of lines in my  work and to draw them with confidence. But sometimes, I also feel like  taking a break from accuracy and control and just want create messy  stuff : ) So, a couple of days ago I took a bottle of ink and dipped a  grill stick into it and started drawing and making messy lines on cards.  Later I colored them with crayons and ended up with fourteen messy  cards, different than my usual style.

I also made some gift tags using mini prints of my illustrations and ended up turning one of them into a key chain.
