Assignment – hair styles. I just kept it basic but I still wound up with 4 sketchbook pages of them….
Hair styles
Illustrated Children's Books
Sketch – Eyeglasses
I am taking an illustration course over the next few weeks and we are given daily prompts that we are encouraged to sketch. I pulled out my sketchbooks and found the various eyeglasses that I have sketched and combined them all here. I have been going to my sketchbooks first because I have so much that I have sketched over the years that many times I can pull something from there, first.
I really need to catalog my sketchbooks. I have over 100.

Standby for more about Darcy…..
This is the whole sketchbook spread. I don’t use the opposing page to keep each sketch clean and undamaged. This is a a sketchbook/journal that I bound from a kit from Innovative Journaling. The paper is Arches Text wove and it is very soft and has a nice texture.

This series of postcards were inspired by a Lesson in Carla Sonheim’s 2021 Year Long Class.
Wild Calico
Oh HEY! Where did this guy come from? The idea for this guy came from Carla Sonheim’s 2021 Sketchbook Revival lesson. The first part of the lesson is to draw a bunch of one liner subjects…cat, elephant, vase of flowers, toilets…..then we each picked one of our own to turn into a more finished piece….
Voila! Wild Calico!
Wild Calico doesn’t like to take baths and he loves to jump in garbage cans and dumpsters. Now he’s having a bad hair day.
