Post It Note Doodle #4: So Smokey

image (1)

I can’t seem to stop doing these Post-It Note Doodles.  This has been an interesting and refreshing exercise – actually putting pencil to paper, which I really haven’t done in a very long time, since I’d become so reliant on my Wacom tablet and Photoshop.

So here’s the latest installment in this series.

This one is a somewhat androgenous character, inspired in large part by Tank Girl, but also bearing more than a passing resemblance to 2D from Gorillaz.


Post-It Note Drawing #2: Sly Smirk

I liked the way my last Post-It note doodle came out when I photographed it at high-resolution and posted it here larger-than-life sized, so here’s another one.

I really miss doing Photoshop drawings, and I hope I’ll get my hardware/software setup back up and running soon.

I picked up a used Macbook Pro recently, which I’m hoping will be a great new tool for me.  I still need to get it loaded up with the programs I use… and that could take a while… hopefully not too long.

At least I’m posting drawings again! :)

Post-It Note Drawing #1

Post-It Note Drawing #1

The computer I’ve been using for my drawing and animation for the past 5 years or so finally succumbed to an unceremoniously-abrupt death….

This happened several months ago, and as luck (or the lack thereof) would have it, my life became very busy right at the same time…

Suffice to say, I have not replaced my dear old friend yet… which explains why there’s been such a gap since my last posts to this site.

At any rate, I’ve found myself doodling a lot lately… mostly on scraps of paper… backs of envelopes, etc… and now… Post-It notes.

They look really interesting (to me anyway) when photographed at high-resolution with my phone, and then posted at larger-than-life size.

More to come…?
