AEDM Day 13- First Thanksgiving 2.0

I upgraded my First Thanksgiving design to add “menus” and then submitted it for posting to They Draw and Cook. I haven’t posted there in a long time and I originally intended to do a map but it segued into a Feast. I am still wanting to do the map. Researching foods for the firstContinue reading “AEDM Day 13- First Thanksgiving 2.0”

AEDM Day 12 – First Thanksgiving Foods

Here’s what I worked on today….just an idea for what a spread on the first Thanksgiving would have looked like.

AEDM DAY 11

Happy Veteran’s Day to those who served for our country. I am still working on that food project but it’s in a messy stage right now so it isn’t quite feeling photogenic. However, I am posting a rare glimpse into my morning portrait sketchbook. I don’t post these every day because they aren’t meant toContinue reading “AEDM DAY 11”

Working out some food ideas….they’ll go through many changes before a final product but it’s a “list” of foods I may want to include. If you would like to see some of the artists participating in Art Every Day Month, please visit https://creativeeveryday.com

AEDM Day 9 – It’s all about Process

Art in Progress AEDM Day 8

Then I sort of play around where he would look best on the page. I usually photo copy the sketch so can play around withContinue reading “Art in Progress AEDM Day 8”

AEDM Days 6 & 7/Commissions

For the past few days I have been working on holiday stuff. I forgot to post yesterday but creating can be intense work. I was thinking on making some cards this year instead of printing them even though I have had my design done since the beginning of the year. We’ll see. I may cutContinue reading “AEDM Days 6 & 7/Commissions”

AEDM Day 5

Here is the digitized version on yesterday’s sketch….if is looks a wee bit blurry, that’s because it’s low resolution for internet posting.

AEDM Day 4

I am working on another project and this is my sketch. I have already scanned it and I will load it into Procreate. I will then turn this sketch into something digital… Stay tuned….

AEDM Day 3

I worked on a couple of things today but I didn’t think you wanted to see some boring prepped boards so this is from my morning routine. 2 boxes for the weekly is done and the little green guy is a blob exercise I do every morning. I am also including my Sketch Design RepeatContinue reading “AEDM Day 3”
