I actually started this piece about 7-8 months ago, but took an extended hiatus from it. I managed to force myself to finish it so I didn’t feel guilty starting even more projects before my old ones were done, which happens way too often. So now I can finally continue on something new, and I’m really excited about it. Hooray!
Do people call these things desktops or wallpapers? I’ve always preferred the term “desktop” for some reason, not sure why. Regardless, this was a badge design I did a while ago, but I thought it deserved some cleaning up and alternative treatments.
I don’t really consider these to be as interesting as the first one, but I have learned a bit just from doing these three. It’s actually a bit of a challenge because I can’t allow myself to sit and think about what I’m doing, I just have to go go go!
Let me know if the videos are totally bogging this page down. I may need to find a better way to embed them.
Numbers 2 and 1 exist but I’ve been having trouble figuring out how to get my QuickTime movies browser-friendly. If I can get those fixed up, I’ll post them later. Otherwise, here’s this one. I hope it doesn’t destroy your computer machine. My plan is to try and do at least one of these a week.

Good evening my friends. You must forgive me for my lack of attention to the blog machine as of late, for I have been negligent. But enough!
I’ve been doing more gesture drawings lately. It is challenging and new. Sure, for beautiful final products we can spend as much time as we want. But life doesn’t stand still, which makes it that much harder to capture. To do it well requires a well-trained eye and mind, so I’ve been attempting to train my own.
Of course I have the luxury of hiding the poorer ones from you. Here’s a horrible one to balance it all out.
Mm hmm. I’ll say though, the pool is a good place for such exercises. If you can avoid getting burnt, which I failed to do.
