phone sketch
working on the TV/ofrenda drawing, really getting into the phone and iterating with color. i like where things are going – digging the offset version, too.
had imagined the whole drawing as black and white line work, but this yellow phone is pretty fun.
i really like this part of the drawing. looks like a necklace, or something.
or, something…
coed dryer
the barcode label on one of the wooden drying racks gave up the ghost this afternoon. “coed”…huh?
went back to the source after deciding to hang on to the label – wanted to see if there were any others.
lucky me, there were two:
nice nice lettering.
i just like it.
4Runner traced sketch pieces. reached a threshold with graphite on trace – needed fixative.
layer by layer it goes: primary outlines, window and interior shading, decals, highlight identification… ? no idea what i’m doing, but i’m enjoying myself.
french curves
‘Complete Stretching’ - Maxine Tobias & John Patrick Sullivan (1992/Knopf)
picked this up in the ballet days, trying to achieve better flexibility and turnout.
slightly different goals nowadays. glad to have held on to this.
came across ‘Bob and Brad’ today. super helpful, given the current circumstances.
“Skeleton Sam” with shoulder-saddled Gumby were eerily on the nose… !
visualizing auto encounters. just getting started, trying some things out. here’s where i’m at:
‘Courtesy Van’
Toyota Warhawk… ?
using french curves for the first time – in earnest. it’s interesting. gonna take some getting used to.
