Sticky Note Project: Week 8

This week's seems to be a little vintage/nostalgia! Old roller skates, toy elephant and Victorian wig...

Week 8:

Vintage Roller skate - the kind that tie to your shoes!

Lavender bouquet

The Sticky-Note Project: Week 7

Finally caught up!!! I'm really getting tempted to bring in some color, just not sure what kind of medium to use. Do I use colored pencils (really not a fan of them), maybe some pastel (it's messy)? I'll have to think on this one...

Week 7:

She could have been so cool but I ruined the hair in the face... Oh well.


All I can say is NOT a good day...

The Sticky-Note Project: Week 6

Almost caught up on posting the several weeks worth of drawings. To be honest, I really didn't think I'd stick with this. I've barely made a dent in the pile of sticky notes I have on my desk!

Week 6:

I didn't like the bottom dog, so I redrew another. He's cuter.


I'm really not sure what this even is!

The Sticky-Note Project: Week 5

Ok, I've got to say these look sooooo much better once they're scanned and put on a website than they actually do in my little yellow sticky note book! It's amazing how once you get a sketch into a computer it changes how you see it. On to week 5...

Week 5:

Found a tutorial on Pinterest (if you don't know what this is, be warned it's addictive!)


Do not like this hair, screwed up by scratchiness!


You'll see in the next few weeks lots of Halloween inspired drawings I'm sure!

The Sticky-Note Project: Week 4

Week 4 is finally getting a little better! In my opinion at least! I'm also doing this project, not just to draw, but to hopefully see an improvement as the weeks go on. It was definitely hard to start drawing on such a small space (3 x 3 inches) but also I'm not as comfortable with a ball point pen. Sometimes they bleed when you don't want them to, or get scratchy in certain places.

Week 4:

Ugh! What is wrong with her lips! Must practice this!


Love this one!

... and this one!

The Sticky-Note Project: Week 3

On to week 3... Everything is really random because I tend to get ideas from my email blasts each and every day! Now that I've started drawing at work during lunch, I'm getting the itch to start practicing and retraining myself during the weekend! Keep in mind, these are just quick, under 5 min sketches.

Week 3:

Blah! I do not like this shoe one... Bad day!


Better, but I need to work on faces, I kind of screwed this one up!


Yum! Cupcakes!
