I really wish creativity came out quicker. Instead I am stuck with trying to pull up past inspirations and find ways to improve on it. The sketch on the left must have been done… i’unno…. 5 years ago? maybe? I have tons of sketch books that contain my oodles and oodles of sketches over the years. I’m just glad that I have the option of looking back.
One thing that i have been meaning to do more of is to move beyond just sketching on paper. I have always enjoyed sketching something real quick. Usually it would just be a quick character sketch, some expressions, or the occasional background scene. Over time though, I have found that it is all i would do, and it felt as if I was limiting myself. To improve beyond my skill, maybe I’ll have to break that limiter and just go all the way more often.
I’ll tell ya this much though, I have been drawing lots recently, and it feels good. Now I just need to push myself harder.
Speaking of going beyond sketching, here is another drawing I did recently taken beyond just a sketch. Even inking takes a lot of effort.


I’m loving the boots on the left.
Now to sleep. Whew….
