Inktober Week One
I’m doing a drawing challenge this month: “Inktober” the challenge is to do a new drawing in ink every day of October. At the end of each week I’ll post the new drawings from that week. Here’s week one
October 7th
A drawing of Audrey Hepburn and her pet deer Pippin
Based on this photograph.
A lot of people don’t know that I’m a big fan of Audrey Hepburn. This drawing didn’t turn out the way I wanted, so I’m going to try it again next week, but I wanted to mix it up and draw something other than buildings for a change. I rarely draw people because I’m not very good at it.
October 6th
A lamp at Suzallo Library.
October 5th
Some hand studdies. Used reference photographs from the internet.
October 4th
I also added watercolor embelishments to this drawing afterwards.
October 3rd
The University of Washington Fountain (it has another name, but I can’t remember it).
In-progress shot.
October 2nd.
October 1st
Gas works park in Seattle.
I later added some watercolor Embelishments.
Thanks for reading, check back next week for Week Two.
Here it goes…
I said I was going to do it so here it is…I’m sending it to Alan Alda…it’d be cool if he wrote back.
Hawkeye Pierce Stencil
Image Posted on Updated on
A stencil I recently revisited. I first made it late last year as a t-shirt. I made one proof of it before on cheap paper, but now I’ve dusted it off and am doing another run with nicer paint and on better paper. My mom suggested I add some color, so I’ve done watercolor embellishments. It really took it from just a cool t-shirt design, to something a lot more appealing to look at (shout-out to mom. couldn’t have done it with out you!).
For any one (or should I say either one) of you who doesn’t know; this image is Hawkeye from the TV series M*A*S*H. My favorite show of all time. More specifically this is from one of my favorite episodes, where Hawkeye tells a joke “possibly the world’s funniest clean joke” as he says. The punchline of which is “that’s all you do: bird immitations?”. The joke isn’t really very funny, but we’re a MASH family and it’s a running joke with us.
I’m thinking of mailing one of the prints to Alan Alda (who played Hawkeye)…he probably would never see it, but you never know.
