AEDM DAY 26 – Team Dasher/Team Santa

I have this small sketchbook that I have been trying to fill up.  I am going to try to fill it up by New year’s Eve.  I have about 50 pages to fill so this is a bit of a challenge I have put upon myself, on top of everything else I have been working on.

This sketch is based on a vintage photo that was submitted to Sktchy by Valerie C.

The Santa sketch is based in the Sktchy submission by Danny Meyer.  I saw that beard and it screamed “Santa” to me.  

Enjoy these, more to come…..

AEDM Day 25

I thought I would take a minute to post some sketches of Chloe that I did earlier this evening….sketching any living thing is tough, even when sleeping, because they frequently change positions and my Chloe isn’t trained to be a mannequin.  These aren’t polished sketches, they are sketches that I do for drills.

AEDM DAY 24 Happy Thanksgiving 2016

Sorry I am just getting to sending this out.  I almost forgot to post this.  I did manage to be creative today, spending a few minutes to do this turkey in the studio while roasting the turkey that went on my table.

I want to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving and I hope you had a great day.

AEDM Day 20

“Sktchy Book of Horror”. This is the front cover of my Homemade sketchbook.  I just have the back cover to do and it will be complete.  The reason I didn’t follow the reference image completely is I wanted to use the wonderful makeup as a guide to decorate the skull collage that I had originally used as the cover and incorporated everything for the final piece.

All I have left is the back cover.

AEDM DAY 17

Years ago I read a series of books by Alice Borchardt.  They started with “Silver Wolf.”  I loved these books and I am not sure why they weren’t made into movies. I loaned out my “Silver Wolf” and much to my dismay, I don’t remember who, and I’d like to read it again.  I guess I will have to look for another copy.

Anyway, here is my “Shapeshifter”
