30 Day Sketch

30 Day Sketch

Days #15 #16 & #17

Day 15's sketch is a variety of lamps. Whilst painting I was watching Pixar: 25 Magic Moments (sooo good!) so this sketch is probably the result of seeing the iconic Pixar lamp and watching children's animation. I used watercolour paints and a fineliner on brown paper;

Day 16's sketch was inspired by a visit to the beach on a cloudy day. I used simple white watercolour paint with black fine liner on brown paper;

Day 17's sketch was a kingfisher- just because I love the colours!

Day #10

I've tried to step away from drawing flowers/plants to something a bit different. This is just a simple illustration I woke up with the idea of; 

The 30 Day Sketch

Lately I've noticed lots of blogger's and internet types taking part in the '30 Day Snap' project- documenting their lives through photography for 30 days. Inspired by this I thought I could set myself the challenge of sketching/drawing/painting something everyday for 30 days as a way of keeping up my drawing whilst on summer holidays from uni. A little over ambitious maybe? Here goes...

Day #1

A quick sketch of one of the catwalk models from Dolce & Gabbana's Spring 2013 RTW collection.

I absolutely love this collection, inspired by 'Sicilia' the collection featured vibrant, ornate patterns from imagery that celebrates the culture and heritage of the region. Details of tassel, wicker and coral embroidery on straw have a folksy feel; which sits beautifully alongside the bold striped 1950's-esque pieces, that are reminiscent of glamorous vintage travel posters.
