Mug With Original Design
$12.59
 

This design was originally a t-shirt for my fiance (who’s got a cute ‘n’ spicy little attitude).  However it turns out CafePress also makes some really high quality mugs.  So now we fight over who gets to use this mug in the mornings :)

You can see all the Hot Lil’ Pepper Swag Here.

So the de young museum is having a Yves Saint Laurent exhibit, which means FASHION that’s FAB-U-LOUS!  :) All joking aside, I got invited to tag along with a friend and her group of friends to see this exhibit.  So basically, I spent the whole day with 5 lovely ladies because all the other guys who were invited were too stupid to show up (suckers!)

Again, all joking aside, I was excited about going because normally museums are full of pots and pans and paintings, all of which are not really that much fun to draw.  However a fashion exhibit sounded great to me because it would mean I’d have plenty of subjects to draw that resembled humans and didn’t move, ever (unlike the real things, which always move the moment you start sketching them).

So here are some sketches I did today at the de young.  They were all done with pen, so there wasn’t any construction lines, so some came out better than others.

We spend the majority of the day walking in the museum as well as in and around golden gate park, so in the end it turned out to be a throughly fun and exhausting day which I hope to repeat some time.

PS: Bonus Sketch from lunch a while back (which I just found today when I opened my sketchbook).  If you look close, you can see that it started raining while I was working on it, but I kind of like the raindrops.

Our daily routine was a monotonous blur of traffic and work. We tried not to see too much, we tried not to feel too much, and we tried not to notice the days slipping by. Then, while in Lyon, France, our world somehow slipped back into focus. For the first time in a great while, our eyes were open. We were awake, we were alive, and we found ourselves savoring every moment. Though it was not the original intent, You had me at ‘croissant’ grew into an attempt to capture the memories of those moments before they faded to a colorless, lifeless afterthought. Maybe this way we can share them. Maybe this way we can savor them again some day. Maybe this way we can use them to revitalize ourselves the next time we find ourselves looking down at our shoes, instead of up at the sky.

I hope so.

What you’ll find in these pages is the work of an amateur artist trying to practice the things he’s been shown by those much better than himself. This book is not about showing off, it’s about documenting progress. I hope you enjoy it!

As always, my sketchbook is about documenting progress. These sketches are from drawing reference images via slide-show. I went through 500 sheets of paper then picked out and cleaned up the best. I hope this book inspires you to draw, draw, draw!

Hip Square’s parents are a Circle and a Square. He doesn’t fit in with the other shapes because his corners are round. –but what Hip really wants is to be like his neighbor Rock Star! Everyone loves Rock Star!

Hip Square wants to fit in with the other kids so badly that he goes as far as to cover himself with honey, wear a banana peel on his head and hold his breath so he’ll look like a star. But all the other kids just laugh at him… –but wait! Hip doesn’t have time to be sad about it because Rock Star’s been kidnapped!

Hip Square is a fable about how we go to great lengths to fit in, but aren’t truly happy until we learn to be ourselves.
