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.

Sticky Note Project: Week 16

One more week before Christmas, I think I'm ready! With that, I'll leave you with some final drawings until the new year!

Week 16:

For some reason her head got really big! She reminds me of the British Guards!

Sticky Note Project: Week 15

Boy oh boy, have the weeks been flying by and the parties adding up, and time running out to finish all the last minute Christmas "doings". We had 5 parties this year! I think that's a new record for us! Which also means my drawing time has been slacking. Don't worry, I still have a mound of sticky notes to use through next year!

Week 15:

This kind of looks like my husband's chin! So strange...

Every girl needs some bling for the Holidays!

I found a cute white owl pendant with flowers all over the body!

Sticky Note Project: Week 14

I really LOVE this weeks drawings. Sometimes it feels like a chore to make time do them, but it always seems, once I get down to business, I'm surprise with what ends up on the paper. And it was all worth it!

Week 14:

This was the day that I forced myself to draw and I'm so glad I did because this is my favorite one yet!
