For Crazy Amigos this week, these two are little sketches I made last night in an old “Moon Diary” which I bought a few years ago. It’s much too sweet to throw out so I decided to use it for sketching. In my bid to improve my drawing skills this year, I intend to try and draw/sketch something every day and the art journal every day; I am not doing badly so far – at least my “faces” are improving!!
She’s quite cute, but not quite there yet!! This next one, however, would make a fitting girlfriend for “What?”:
I’m just using pencils and a rubber, employing the techniques I learnt from Tam at Willowing. I love her style! 🙂

/ January 19, 2011I love that you’re sketching so often! I saw the second sketch on FB late last night and thought she was part of the calendar itself, so I didn’t comment …but she’s yours! I’d love to have a calender illustrated with Miss Who? ! Love the way she’s divided by the lines on the paper. Give a ruler effect and looks like her height is being measured by the page.

/ January 20, 2011I started sketching too last week, but somehow I left it alone since then… I know I should practice more often. Maybe I will now that I see your pages. I’d like to sketch such cuties as you do… so I will have to go practice-practice-practice…
