I decided to post this illustration that I did of myself. I started drawing on post-its the other day just because I actually had a single creative thought in my head. This is how I feel after lunch at Moe's on a humid day in May... me, with frizz-head and fully tummy! It wasn't exactly all that creative but it was enough to push me to draw... SHOCKER! I've been sooo slack lately about doing traditional artwork. I can't even remember the last time that I picked up a pencil to draw something. I've become so dependent on my mouse as my drawing tool. It's a little bit embarrassing.
Obviously you can see that my skillzzzz aren't as great as they used to be. I'm slightly rusty. So excuse the crappy post-it drawing. BUT, it's a start. And it's something that I actually did a follow up post-it drawing... not related to this drawing in anyway but a it's a second piece to this series that I hope to do. The second is to be posted later!
As I promised myself before, I'm going to actually try to do Illustration Friday from now on but because I'm slack and draw on a very sporadic schedule, I've created Illustration Anyday. I'll try to remind myself that it really doesn't take very long to do a drawing based on a topic, especially when given a week to produce a drawing. Illustration Anyday will be just for me, when I feel the urge. I'll probably stick to post-its because they are readily available to me on most days. Hopefully this won't be something that I drop before it's even begun. Wish me luck!
