WE HATE PAINT.

When i started my sketchbook i got off to a really great start and then PAINT happened.
It warped my page, ruined the paper and basically killed my sketchbook. 
Soooo, i decided to take everything out and place it in a new book. So far I've focused mainly on illustration and type. I've basically been drawing Brandon Flowers at every opportunity i get. I've been pretty excited about this project because it doesn't really have any flaws, I'm quite comfortable putting it all together. The only thing I'm pondering over is what to do for my final piece, but I'm such I'll figure it out. 
I've wanted to build up my drawing skills because it's something i do often and it is something i love. So I've been sketching and bashing out 5-minute drawings to get my creative head on.

I drew this a couple of weeks ago with my left hand. It's a good technique to try because you pay more attention to what you're doing when you draw with the hand you don't write with. You feel less comfortable holding the pen so the outcome of the drawing has more of an 'undone' feel to it. The quote is from Brandon that i always remember because it made me laugh.

" I just think it's the whipped cream... on top. The Killers are the pie and I guess (my) looks are the cherry."

This was a sketch i did from the above picture. I gave him hair initially, but i messed it up

which is why he is now bald. Greaaaat.
