H’oh boy! I’ve got a lot of work to do in the next little bit, so I’m pulling a sketch page from deep in the archives. I’ll have wonderful new work to share with you soon, I promise.
SketchPage #0002
Year: 2012
Ms. Bunny
More doodling on the Cintiq; still trying to get the hang of it, but I think I’m dialing it in. Either way, I’m sure I’ll enjoy the process of experimentation.
Libra
I just realized it’s been a while since I’ve posted any of my zodiac series. I don’t really have any good excuse as to why not, so I’m just going to pick up where I left off as if nothing happened. Okay? Okay.
Next in line, if you’re following along, is Libra. A’int she cute?
Sketchadoodle
I recently came into possession of a Cintiq tablet; I think this is going to be a game changer. I can also safely kiss whatever social life I have goodbye.
Also, it feels really weird to create something digitally from scratch. It’ll take some getting used to.
The Basketball Jones
I’ve been looking at a lot of pin up art lately for some inexplicable reason. And sometimes you’ve just got to draw a pin up. Also, if you’re listening to the Space Jam soundtrack, the chances are slim that you’ll draw anything but a basketball cutie.
Killer Bee
When I was doing my 4″ x 6″ drawings for Rose City Comic Con I used it as a perfect excuse to do loads of fan art. Anything I would ever have wanted to draw but normally wouldn’t have had much cause was up for grabs. And that’s the story of how I wound up drawing Cammy White.
To that end, for all of November, if you buy anything from my online store (http://vaughnbarkerillustration.bigcartel.com/) I’ll include a free 4″ x 6″ drawing as my way of showing thanks. If you spend $50 or more I’ll even color it by hand for you!
Ms. Mustache
Portland may not have invented the hipster, but I think they’re definitely more in love with the life style than any other city. (Which is saying a lot since I moved up here from the San Francisco Bay area.) And, what is no hipster without?
A mustache.
Again, something I don’t quite understand, but I still couldn’t pass up drawing it.
I has all the cutes!
Apparently there was a kitten expo in town today. I didn’t get a chance to attend, but I imagine there was a lot of this type of daydreaming going on.
Young Jedi Tricks
Younglings and Padawans have to find some way to entertain themselves until their skills fully develop I suppose.
Heya, Half Pint!
I’ve been spending time at a local coffee shop when I have time in the mornings. The barista there is kinda cute, so I couldn’t stop myself from doing a drawing of her the other morning to break in my new sketchbook. Then I brought it home and decided to try something other than my normal digital painting; I pulled out and dusted off my markers and started having some fun. I think more of these are in store for the days to come.
