Sketches from 2007 (part 1)

_{The following blog is taken from my blog over on MySpace...}

I'm quite keen on the thought of updating this blog once a month with what-ever sketch pad I was working on at that time. I got the idea after I was taking photos of a sketch book for a friend and I realised that people may never actually see these (as rubbish as they are).

Until then however, I might just bring you all up to speed with my old sketch books from the past two years. A lot of them are rubbish doodles (visual vomit!), so I will only post the best or most understandable of them.

Sketch Pad - 2007 - 24 images

This blog is a collection from a sketch pad I hated drawing in. It was a 100page A4 sketch pad I got for €2 and the paper is ridiculously thin. A lot of the pictures were drawn with a 2h pencil and so would not scan properly, even if I tried. (they were actually difficult to see as I was going through them). As a result, some of the brightness and levels had to be adjusted. nothing major - especially for this.

Images are hosted on Photobucket. Click on them for a somewhat bigger view, just don't expect anything special.

These three images (the Witch, Frankenstein's monster and the Grim Reaper) where drawings I did for the local primary school to colour in at Holloween. The verisons I gave them would have been better scans than these.

These two sketches (teacher at blackboard and kids playing football) was done as part of a teacher's retirement fo the childern to colour in. They were then used for a little retirement going away thing. The kids were suprised that I made the teacher look like their retiring teacher. I wasn't! lol

These images (all the insect items) were part of a portfolio course I did (and dropped out off). The project was to make something wearable based on insects and a bridge (I think).

I'm a big Oban Star Racers fan. Its a great kids TV show made by a French production team and animated by a Japanese team. Its a very cool show, check it out. Its like as if they made a TV show all about Star Wars Pod-racing (from Episode 1).
