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…

Old man – Character Designs
On May - 15 - 2012
My wife Amber was doing a memory sketch of an old man we saw at the movie theater while waiting in line. I decided to do several variations of him to try to push the design farther. I haven’t really done a lot of character design. I’m sure there’s a lot more to it. But I had fun at least. My favorites are the 4th one on the first page and the first one on the second page.
And of course I had to take a stab at ripping him up like a Spumco drawing. Poor guy.

Grocery Overload

This sketch is actually from several weeks ago. The lady was walking around looking for a cart to place the piles of frozen food spilling over her grasp. Pretty funny to watch actually. This was a quick memory sketch.

I sketched this lady while I was waiting in line to see the Hunger Games. She was NOT happy. I decided to splash a little color on with photoshop.

I am trying to push my caricature sketches more towards designing characters right now. Simplifying characteristics, instead of adding details. I saw this girl at the local grocery store, stopping for some lunch. I think I could push the design a lot better though.

March sketching.
On March - 26 - 2012
Busy month lately. We’ve been doing a lot of caricature events in recent weeks. I can’t complain, but I’ve not been sketching as much as usual. Just a few here and there. These are a few of my favorites from recently. These are out of the moleskin sketchbook.

Walmart people sketches
On February - 17 - 2012
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…

This was a quick commission for this years Singles Awareness day party (Valentines day). I bet he’s into Heavy Metal.

Sketchbook – January 15 2012
On January - 18 - 2012
These are some of my favorite sketches from the last week. These are actually each from a different place. I try to do at least one sketch when I go out in public. It helps keep me loose so that by the time I get back to the studio I don’t have to spend a couple hours getting warmed up to work.
