Sketchcrawl!

Last Saturday I invited some people to come out to Millennium Park to have a sketchcrawl. As you can see we had a pretty decent turnout. We had tons of fun and drew lots of pictures. Below are a couple of sketches I did.

I mostly drew the people in our group because every time I tried to draw someone else they would disappear. Anyways, the above sketch is Gabe and Gari.


Al, Ernst, and some random guy with a mohawk.


Above is a piece of cardboard that everyone took turns drawing on.



And finally, this is the little sketch that Gabe drew in my book.

Linework


I sketched this, then cleaned it up, then inked it. I'm not sure how I wanna color it yet. I just kinda like as is. I will color it though, just not tonight, because I'm tired. And probably not tomorrow because I'll be busy. Also, not Sunday, 'cause I'll be at my parents house. Next week sometime. Okay, bye now!

Cheshire Catbus?

So, after doing the painting in my previous post, I came up with this strange idea to make the Cheshire Cat look like the Catbus from My Neighbor Totoro. So I did this little sketch below. I promise this is the last of the Alice in Wonderland fanart and Alice/Totoro fusion art. I have never even seen Alice in Wonderland! I just had this crazy idea; I don't know where it came from. Anyways, the setup is taken from a scene in My Neighbor Totoro where Catbus, Mei, and Satsuki are all sitting in a tree. A screenshot of the scene is pictured below my ridiculous sketch. Also, once again, this picture features me as Alice.



This screenshot and the characters in it belong to Studio Ghibli.

Sweet Dreams

This is me as Alice sleeping on the Cheshire cat. He's so comfy. I think I'll go take a nap now.

Final


The final was done with inks and watercolor with some touch-ups done in Photoshop.

Lastly, here is a little sneak peak into my messy workspace.

Beach!

I can't wait for Chicago to warm up. I wanna go lay on the beach. Here's a little something I did while waiting for spring to turn into summer.


Also, notice that it has my name and the year at the bottom. My mother always told me to write my name and the date on every picture I draw and I almost always forget. I'm gonna try better to remember from now on. I promise, promise.

Anyways, enjoy!
