Two Hundred Thirty-Four

As I mentioned, these images are not created in one session, they are developed overtime which works well in somecases pushing the line quality and density. This image is only a slight variation, but is based on this idea.

Two hundred Thirty-Three

The image below, was a combination of of different ideas, patterns and days. What happens with the drawings in my journal is that they evolve thoughout the life of that particular journal. They may be drawn and referenced on future pages or they may very well be reworked into something new or more complete. It is a great starting point for brainstorming almost like freewriting for drawing. Enjoy!

Two Hundred Thirty Two

So, once again life has gotten in my way of creating my artwork on a regular basis, but you adapt and make it work however you can. As you will see from the following few posts, I have been drawing, writing and thinking about my artwork just not in any formal fashion. Welcome back the journal sketches.

So this image has been showing up from time to time based on this dilapitated tree I drive by everyday on my lovely commute to work. It has human characteristics to me and sometimes I expect it to come to life. maybe someday it will! Enjoy and see you next time.

Two Hundred Thirteen!

Another day another page, I love thinking of this project like that. I never really know what I am going to do but I start layering elements and tossing color onto the page and whalla, I’ve got something to work with. The burst images were actually a pre-sketch for a print I did at one point while studying at Umass Boston. Enjoy and I’ll see you next time.

Day Ninety-Four!

These are a bunch of images I am touching up to part of a bigger project I am working on. These when finished will be a few of the pages of my book. I loved being able to take the sketches I drew in my journal and transfer them into something more “important” or official. Just a quick reminder, HULL OPEN STUDIOS this Sunday from 10-5.  Stop by and say hello I would love the chance to get to talk to people in person about the works.  Anyway, enjoy and I’ll see you tomorrow!

Day Ninety-One!

This was like a total paint fest on one surface. I wasn’t really feeling anything I was working on and this was actually the scrap piece I had been using.  Oddly enough even if it doesn’t end up like this in the end it might make its way into the book I am making with all the images I’m not crazy about. Anyway, Enjoy and I will see you tomorrow!

Day Eighty-Nine!


Funny day for me, not my typical post at all, but this is what I did yesterday. Also, a friend told me it is good to post things like this because she wants people to know I draw more then rocks. Not that that is all I post about but a lot of things resemble rocks I suppose. Anyway, these were a lot of fun to draw, more like a doodle really. Enjoy and Ill see you tomorrow!

Day Eighty-Four!

Another doodle today… I am always amazed how happy I am with the result of images drawn with office materials, Sharpies, pens and highlighters. I’ve been obsessed with the shape combinations in these small little drawings. The image is bold and highly contrasted which I love! Enjoy and I’ll see you tomorrow!

Day Seventy-Nine!

Another simple doodle as most people would probably call it. I’m loving this combination though. I think it is probably the contrast I am so excited and attracted too not to mention I always have loved a bright pop of color. Right now the pink happens to be that color, obviously. So just a quick reminder Open Studios in Hull are happening soon. It is the weekend of July 7th and 8th. I will only be participating on the 8th since one of my besties is getting married on the 6th and it is going to be an amazing time! Which ultimately means Saturday = Recoup time. Anyway enjoy and I will see you tomorrow!

Day Seventy-Eight!

Another experiment with everyday materials that you find in your desk. I forgot to post before I left the house so now that I am back here it is. Hope everyone had a nice fathers day, we got to enjoy a wonderful family dinner from The Corrib in West Roxbury with the family. It’s one of my favorite comfort kind of restaurants. So back to this image I was really enjoying yesterdays image so I tried it again… It’s kind of fun to see the contrast of the line quality of a pen verse a sharpie verse a highlighter. Anyway onto the next image. Enjoy, see you tomorrow!
