sketchbook - george

one of my favourite sydney bands going around at the moment is seekae. this is george from seekae, taken from a photo of him in the studio recording their first album. again, it's a scribble sketch, completely in pen, so some things haven't actually worked true to george's actual face, but working in pen, they can't be changed. however, unless you know him really well, you hopefully won't notice!

sketchbook drawings

some sketches from a new sketchbook - my daughter aeowyn gave it to me for my birthday - it has the very hungry caterpillar on the cover. the sketches are all done in biro without any pencil working out. i like the discipline working with biro makes. you have no way of correcting mistakes, so they have to become part of the final image. so mostly i just scribble for a couple of hours for each one, gradually building up the tone. but, if you look close, it is all ultimately just scribbling!
