Just a rough warmup thing. Been far too long, ain't it? I must say, that is the tiniest vanity chair...

Happy Tuesday

I caught a glimpse of this kid on the patio as I walked into the commissary yesterday. She had no idea how to approach eating her soft taco.

These drawings today are really spur of the moment, the sort of doodles I do on the cintiq when I take a break. With this tall, british, tennis playing girl from the late 30s(in my mind, anyway), I started drawing her right calf first, pulling it down to the ground, then drawing back up. Strange, but there you are.

...and when I'm feeling happy, I feel like drawing.

My Backyard Birds

noreply@blogger.com (Jenny Lerew) — Tue, 24 May 2011 22:39:00 +0000

I recently added a couple of feeders and a birdbath to my backyard, and it's become an all-day party scene for the locals. Missing from the lineup are the (resident and nesting) mockingbirds and (occasional) scrub jay. Before moving to the San Gabriel foothills a couple of years ago I'd never seen a grosbeak, towhee or goldfinch at my feeder, but all the others are old friends. I've found their various personalities and antics fascinating. The boldest and least afraid of me is the tiniest-the 4" goldfinch. The Towhee is a quiet ground-scourer, and the finches and sparrows battle it out.

I'm cleaning up my desktop and found some old WIP things from the beginning of the Dave Pimentel/Jeff Snow/Dave Derrick "drawing of the day" thing...just...scribbles.

I'm done with posting cintiq drawings here for a while I think.
This is a quick one drawn with a Copic marker. I put that tiny bit of color on in PS but that's it for digital with this one.
