Some drawings from Christmas...

I brought my box of prismacolor markers with me out to my parents' house where I had to stay over the holiday. The markers provide a very bold color treatment, and they have a tendency to bleed through the page. The solvents are so strong that they layer very well without muddying together. This is an experimental set, my favorite is the second one down. I laid down the plaid pattern first with my markers and then disregarded it, drawing observationally right on top. I really enjoy getting away from the controlled environment of the computer.

Testing...

Micron Hero the 'zine...

Summer seems to be creeping closer. It's brilliantly sunny outside and somehow I'm here in front of the computer. Summer is going to take some adjusting to. It is so refreshing to be able to do some personal work. Personal work is crucial to gaining a refreshed perspective after the completion of a large project, like the senior thesis. I'm just taking some time to do some experimental drawing and designing, it all informs the professional practice. I'd like to get a 'zine on some local shelves over the summer, if you're interested in being a part of my 'zine drop a comment. I want Micron Hero to be a publishing label, getting the work of my friends out there. The focus will be on sketchbook and drawing culture.
