Dragon lady sketch

dragon

Nothing fancy, just a quick sketch before bed yesterday. I still doodle girls when I’m tired or bored. It… relaxes the mind :)

Random sketches of people around Kensington market. Lots of great people to draw, only wish they’d stop more often instead of just walking by in like 5 seconds.

Sunday sketches

Sunday, March 29th, 2009

It’s been a long time since I posted any sketches! It’s a bit of a drag since WordPress jams up on me half the time – I don’t know why. Anyway, just some quick Sunday sketches.

Modern Mandrake sketch

Wednesday, December 10th, 2008

I was playing around with my more stylized style, and got into thinking about concepts like earth mother, gaea and mothering in general. It made sense to me to tie the stuff together in a picture that suggests that we in turn mother the earth when we do care for it.

My husband finds it slightly disturbing though.

The mandrake is a plant whose roots can resemble vague semblences to humans. It was pruportedly used in magical and pagan rituals. It was also in Pan’s Labyrinth – you know the creepy thing she stuck in a pan under the bed and fed milk and blood to.

HR Professional WIP

Monday, December 8th, 2008

I’m reorganizing the blog, and so I’m re-porting the work in progress sketches for the HR Professional article.

Here was the original sketch, and some other ideas I pitched to the editor. I quite liked the one with the words going into the head, but the one they picked was nice too. The article was about basic financial terms for people in the human resource industry.
