I started using a brown paper sketchbook this week for the first time. It’s also been ages since I used Prisma markers. Its refreshing switching it up.
By the way, I made a video flip-through of my last sketchbook! Check it out…

It has been a very busy month, but I’ve tried to squeeze in sketching whenever I can. I’m almost finished with this moleskin sketchbook. Probably 7 or 8 pages to go. After this I’m going to switch to a brown paper sketchbook, just to keep things fresh for me.
Lately, I’ve been drawing with red/blue pencils, and for some reason purple prisma color brushpen for outlining. On this page in particular, I’ve been smudging the purple to get shaded effects, and then go back over it with colored pencil, or greys to give it more depth. I’ve almost completely stopped using black ink for the last few weeks or so. Most of these were drawn at the Lubbock Comic Book Expo this past weekend.

I just really love sketching people in the wild. It really forces you to develop a vocabulary with creating characters. Both in attitude, and personality. When I would only sketch from my imagination, it was always frustrating to make characters look unique (and correct). I don’t feel I have that problem any longer. Here’s a few from this week…
These are a few of my sketches from the past week. Lots of walmart people, and a few from the mall. Lots of character this week.
I loved the security guard in this first one, he came in all flustered, with a baby blue bicycle helmet on, and his pants leg rolled up,
scrambling to get some food before his shift.
