Paul 3/31 Sketch 21

Self portrait...of a kind.

"April 1.  This is the day upon which we are reminded of what we are on the other three hundred and sixty-four."

~ Mark Twain, Pudd'nhead Wilson, 1894 ~

March 31!!

I drew this today for a friend whose birthday is tomorrow. I should have drawn & mailed it a couple of days ago, I know. A wizard is never late, but her birthday card will be. (4x6" marker and pencil on chipboard.)

BTW, thank you Jody for hosting this and getting us all to draw daily like we should be doing!

Day 31 - MANDA!

what to draw what to draw.....

Paul 3/30 Sketch 20

And...And...then....

Well awhile back I did a sketch where gramps was telling the kids his Tall tales...so thought I would reverse the roles on how kids like to tell their stories or how their day went. I can't believe March is already coming to an end. Yikes. Time is flying to fast.

March 30 (almost done!!)

Isabelle

Watched "Hugo" last night, sketchbook in my lap. So many great faces and costumes. I'm going to have to watch the film a couple more times. Spent too much time looking down, trying to capture all the characters.

Yes, I technically drew this yesterday, but I colored it in after midnight, so it counts as my March 30 sketch.

Day 29 - Manda

Elephants drawing elephants... some quick sketches this afternoon ;)

March 29

Senator Walrus daydreams of performing at SeaWorld...

Decorated another envelope to mail a contract to a client. Yes, those are custom stamps, too. I had them made for postcards back when the postage rate was 5¢ less. So, for this letter, Im overpaying 9¢, not including the surcharge of personalized postage. This contract better be worth it.

Paul 3/27 Sketch 17

March 26 from Tim

I drew this earlier today, during a brief break from work. It's 2am, and I'm done with the job (for now).

Paul 3/26 Sketch 16

Outta my head.

Here's one from last year.....Jody

This one was just too horrible NOT to share two years in a row. If you're not about to vomit after seeing these two, you just might have a stomach of pure steel. 

Paul 3/25 Sketch 15

Long night, long Sunday. I took a break and lay down on the deck in the sun while my daughter did her drawing homework. I looked up and saw something like this face in the clouds:

Day 25 - Manda

ill have the time of my life song from dirty dancing came on the radio today, and this is the image that came to my mind... not sure why lol

Weekend Drawings

From Friday night (March 23):

My daughter was in her High School production of "The Wizard of Oz". I did the monkey in her honor.

From yesterday (March 24):
I'm not sure where this came from in my head. I was playing Scrabble® with my mom and started doodling while she was working on her words.

George Segal!! - Day 25

Yeay! I finally get to draw one of the actors from "In Character!" George Segal is pretending to be a woman in labor. I love this book!

Manda - Day 24

is march done yet? aaaaaaaaah lol  here is a pic of my 3 year old the other day... I heard her screaming from the bathroom MOM!! I NEED HELP!!

and when i went in there, this is what i found...I was so grossed out, but then she added LOOK MOM!! im the GRINCH!! and i couldnt help but laugh.

Fun and Rest 3/24

So keeping to the theme of the baby and teddy bear from a prior sketch this past week,. Thought I would add a couple more sketches of the two. My little one has been the inspiration for these.

Hunger Games _ Jody Day 23

I drew this for my friend Ginger Cooper who was kind enough to invite me to see Hunger games with her. She paid my way so I wanted to give her a drawing. Neither one of us has read the books. I really want to but am waiting until things are more stable  :) Bills first, fun WAYYYYYY later!

Music Man 3/22

Was watching tv today and seen this guy with his guitar singing to kids. So good thing I had my drawing pad with me at the time so I could quickly sketch him...or at least get the idea down. I always like sketching spontaneously without worrying about what is right or wrong. I feel I have more energy or life to my sketches/drawings that way. Sometimes I nail it and sometimes I don't but that's the whole fun about drawing.

Manda - Day 22

We met this little girl at the park today. Her dad was off sitting on a bench while texting and not paying attention.
Meanwhile "Lindsey" was telling us all about herself. We soon learned that she was four and use to be 3, that her dad was putting her on a plane in 2 days to go to ohio.
that her favorite person in the world is kensey and shes in Ohio, and that her dad is trying to work things out with his dad on the phone...
lol kids.

Paul 3/22 Sketch 14

Deadpan.

Day 21 Manda!

Drew this for my nephew scotties 12 yr old bday. Optimus Prime is his favorite.

Pablo 3/21 The encounter!!

3/21

A postcard I made for my sister.

iRobot - Jody

It's not quite Will Smith, but it's done in a few seconds. I'll do another one before the Willenium is out, I promise! I used to have terrifying, super-real, nightmares about robots malfunctioning and killing my family. I think Matt Groening has the same fear (as he mentions in a lot of Futurama Commentarys) that robots are a bit scary. 

Good Day for a Dandy

Day 20 - Manda

Something i finished for someone today. Their kids are as opposite as can be. =)

NOTEBOOK PAGE

Been busy paying the mortgage. LOL. So the best I can do 

is a page from my notebook I did a couple nights ago.  

Paul 3/20 Sketch 12

Day 19 - Manda!

Been super busy today with an art job... but watched once upon a time tonight on the computer. aaah it started out slow, but that tv show is pickin' up now! anyway was testing out drawing snow white in different ways..kinda lame.. oh well!

Day 18 Manda!!!!

hey drew this.. i know its not st. pattys day anymore, but i was watching star wars, and a friend of mine and i were on iscribble and we drew this up. its Darth Vader saying "Dont even think about pinching me" On st. pattys day.

Sort of Tim Robbins

Oddly enough, I grabbed a magazine at random, flipped it to the page with the Tim Robbins article on it. Went to the house where I"m housesitting and what do you know is on TV when I flip it on? Shawshank. Very apropos but I had hardly any light for this one (being lazy) so I kind of gave up on it. 

Actually, my contacts have been in way too long and I was super tired which is more reason for me to have given up. 

Paul 3/19 Sketch 11

Don't ask.

March 18

...a day late.

St Paddy's Day - Liam! from Manda

I decided to draw a great irish actor! Since todays st. pattys day.. who doesnt love Liam Neeson?
