Sticky Note Project: Week 19

Typography week! This week I decided to illustrate different typography styles and fonts. The quotes are pretty random, usually from something I happened to see that day or hear on the radio! Nothing special... but on another note of something that IS special - I'm almost to 100 sticky note images!

Sticky Note Project: Week 18

So, I decided that I want to try and start adding color in my doodles, so I brought something easy to use at work - sketch markers. I have to say I'm not liking them AT ALL. I thought I would, but I'm not liking the lack of control and I feel like the color is just too pigmented with one stroke. I much more a fan of water color consistency. So, my next attempt go in afterwards and slowly build up color.

Sticky Note Project: Week 17

Happy New Year! Ahhh, what a nice break, but I'm ready to jump back into my weekly sticky note drawings as well as devote more free time to trying new techniques. It's quite a rainy start to the new year so I might need to to take advantage of this dreary day and pull out some watercolor and paper! I also found some great sketch markers i tried out this week. I can't say it was "successful" but it was worth a shot, we'll see what happens in the coming weeks!

Week 17:

I'll admit, this one's a little creepy... but i love the 2012 ring.

First attempt with a highlighter.
I found some sketch markers in my stash and decided to give those a shot.
