Attempts

Trying to make sketchbook drawings look nice.  
Also trying to figure out a cost friendly phone plan (trick: there isn't one), and utterly failing at it.

Caffeine Girl

Meet "Caffeine Girl".  I found her hiding in an old notebook from last year, originally created to be in a game set in your local cafe.

She's that cute girl that that sits alone at the other end of the room, sipping her coffee and looking out the window.  And you wonder to yourself, What's she thinking of? And you feel the urge to walk over, and ask.  But you hesitate, and take another sip from your cup.

Instead of The Cafe, it could take place in the The Laundry Room (Days of College), On The Street (Murakami), or In The Library (Scott Pilgrim).

Anyway, I checked the local Coffee Bean and she wasn't there.  Turns out she isn't a person you're supposed to search for.

Determinism



Hey look I drew a 4-koma.  The idea was taken from a discussion on philosophy and sketched on the bus ride to work the following day. Watch as my handwriting evolves panel after panel.

Aphra

I've been playing Portal 2 since launch on the PS3.  Here's a character I drew in my notebook as I was idling in Physic's class (2011.02.06).  Ideally it would have been the Women Writer's class, as I'd be able to steal an author's name that way.  The page of notes after the drawings are on Aphra Behn.

Start with Why

I like dull colors but I'm unhappy with these.  At time's I still wonder why I draw.  Simon Sinek: Start With Why If I'm still drawing hoping for fame or profit, I'm probably doing it all wrong.  Other time's I'm fearful of drawing, afraid it'll all come out wrong.
