Kinda funny: I walked 30 minutes on a trail into the woods, and surrounded by nature scenes, I decided to draw...my sunglasses case. If you've drawn one leaf you've drawn a million.
I was going to title this "His 'n' Hers" but that sounded a bit lewd. It's just nice when things fit together, and the temporary satisfaction of completion is achieved. Jeez, now I'm getting clinical. Anyway, go in one puzzle piece and come out the other, and you're done. No subtext here. Really.
This started while I was eating a rare (I swear!) meal at KFC last Monday. Drew the shape of the plate freehand (a bit carelessly, I admit), then started designing a pattern around and behind it. I don't know if "Life Tastes Better" with KFC, but I kinda like this result.
Today went much better. I reserved a "quiet room" at my local library for 30 minutes and went right to work, using yesterday's late-night session for the seed of an idea. A plane flying in from the left and branching off in many directions. Tried to introduce "3D" to the drawing, by making the width go narrower to imply going "back" into the page. Fair result for little effort.
I was kind of out of it physically, so I frittered the day away, while in the back of my mind not forgetting my promise to get some maze work done. So, while laying in bed at the end of the day, I pulled out my sketch book and started this. Didn't get it completed but did the 30 minutes and some ideas for later.
Day 1 of my goal to draw maze-related artwork at least 30 minutes a day. Nothing spectacular here, just kind of forced myself to get it done. Staring at the blank page, I didn't have any great ideas, so I drew an oval, which turned into a trampoline, which I started "jumping" off of with my pencil.
