#273 – Vitruvian LEGO Man

Vitruvian LEGO manYou know it’s a good day when you can spend a large chunk of it playing with LEGO.  I definitely find that the more you play with LEGO, the greater respect you have for the amazing design behind it.  Maybe that’s what inspired this goofy little sketch.

#264 – Asleep at the pencil

Asleep at the pencilDid I mention that I need to go to bed earlier?  This is about how I felt while doing tonight’s super-quick sketch before bed.

#263 – Suburban sprawl

Suburban sprawlThis was me after getting home from work today.  I woke up a while later, and did this quick sketch while I still had a sliver of energy.  I need to start going to bed earlier.

#262 – The Menagerie

MenagerieTried something different this evening — wanted to see if I could do a bunch of different animals in a cohesive style.  These are just basic characterizations, but it would be interesting to try some other animals or people as well and see how that would work.

#252 – Grizzly, Man!

Bear punchHad my grandmother in town for a visit, and we spent the day doing lots of grandma type things (botanical gardens, tea, etc.).  As enjoyable as it was, at the end I felt like I needed to do something uniquely masculine to balance it all out.  Unfortunately, there were no grizzly bears around that I could punch in the face, so I had to settle for sketching it.

#248 – Useless wranglings

PunditSaw a bunch of political pundits on TV this evening.  Such a pointless charade.  Anyway, this started out based on a photo of James Carville, but as you can see, I pretty much abandoned any effort to make it actually look like him.  So now it’s just “generic angry bald guy.”
