Leisure

Decided to try something a little different from what I've ever really tried doing in the past in terms of trying to create something a bit more graphic. I watched The Notebook for the first time yesterday; since I've heard multiple times that it's a film everyone should see at least once, I figured I would give it a watch. This was kind of inspired by a short scene that had one of the main characters walking along with an icecream cone (and her boyfriend). I sketched the guy initially but wasn't liking how he turned out so I just omitted him. This isn't an exact replica of the actress or the scene itself, nor was it meant to be - like I said, it was mainly just my source of inspiration. :)

(Shoes & Toes are overrated, hehe)

Couple Quick Pieces

Just a couple things since I haven't updated in a while and felt like posting something. The first is just a quick little sketch (done for an assignment for my acting class) that I decided to splash some color on; the outer yellow garment is an apron since she has a profession in baking. I really never give stories to my characters but this particular assignment called for it (there's more to this character than just the fact that she's a baker, haha). In the future I should probably try and attach more meaning to whatever characters I create, despite the fact that that has never been something I have had any particular interest in in the past. The second thing here are just some little sketches I did last semester while in my Character/Culture studies class...I thought I put it up here but I guess I never did.
