pencil ink travels

Here are recent pencil and ink works. I recently brought a small notebook, ink pen, and clutch pencil from the Japanese store here - much cheaper than gordan harris. Though I would like to get a larger notebook in the future - the one I am currently using is A6 and A5 would be better.

Notes taken at the Auckland Python meetup. There was a bunch of speakers - from chicargo crime to a django site for marine repair hiring, and RESTful best practices.

I am going to submit a talk for next month. I will either talk about MindBodyOnline API and what I am doing with it for Hot Yoga Works (a talk I have never done before) OR Space GIF (which I have talked about at NASA Space APPS and Sydney Python)

20201118_194958.jpg

This was drawn in Napier, New Zealand. I traveled to Napier to visit my Grandfather but he was unwell so I didn’t end up seeing him. The view, weather, and my time in Napier was good though.

I have drawn this scene previously when I have traveled to Napier in the past to visit Grandad.

endoct2020rgd

Here’s some last minute artwork for october. More Halloween themed portraits.

gabriellehmua

A portrait of habriellehumua from redditgetsdrawn. Small horns. It’s not finished, missing hair and background etc. But the simplicity of it is nice.

yooitsash

A portrait of yooitsash from redditgetsdrawn. A scarecrow theme for halloween. I like the flower bow.

natigg_78

A portrait of natigg_78 from redditgetsdrawn. Holding a orange up to her eye, so only had to draw one eye. The hand was fun to draw.

bbzarr

A portrait of bbzarr from redditgetsdrawn. Strong dark makeup on the face, clown like. The shirt had a montage of portraits on. So this is a portrait within a portrait.

emilynnsimmons

A portrait of gardengnoslc from redditgetsdrawn. Looking to a angle.

oct2020rgd

Here is some artwork that I created recently. All the references are from redditgetsdrawn. It’s October so lots of pre Halloween photos which is fun.

buyingsecrets

A portrait of buyingsecrets. Clean lines for the face, looking to the right. Managed to fit in the bust into the frame also. A stripped top. No background.

lacielaplante

A portrait of lacielaplante. This was a Halloween costume. She has devil horns on her head which was great to add into the image. Interesting way of holding her hand which made for a challenge.

oggality

A portrait of oggality. Nice hate and interesting container he is holding. I drew the people on the container. full body within portrait art.

beard-rgd

I didn’t write down the name of this one. But it’s a guy with a beard from redditgetsdrawn.

nessi_saltares

A portrait of nessi_saltares. I like the way she is holding her hand under her chin.

el-gothica

A portrait of el-gothica. Another Halloween costume. This one had lots of body paint applied - creating a 2 face type effect. I really enjoyed creating the thick back lines to show the edge of the paint. In the background - darkness.

vanessa_30

A portrait of vanessa_30.

electricheadcomedy

A portrait of electicheadcomedy. Halloween costume but a male. I drew his horns much shorter than the photo. Very frizzy hair.
