what i would have done

For the presentation today I wanted to show you guys a fun exercise I do with pencil. I'm totes in love with this artist Jhonen Vasquez. He is the creator of Invador Zim, and before that he did some hilarious dark comics my fave being Jhonny The Homicidal Maniac.

So I draw Jhonny a few times quick and scratchy. Pencil is nice beacause it's easy to vary the weight and quality of the line and it is soft, making it easy to fill in big areas with black without making a lot of mess, and of course it erases in case i want to tweek something or detract from an area that's too heavy. Then I draw the same pose, action with my own character and drawing style. I find myself wanting to draw the same things over and over again so this is a good way for me to loosen up my brain.

I'll post some pictures maybe later.

hey everyone

Sorry i missed seeing the demonstrations today i feel a little piece of my soul is missing.
