digging in the archives — old moleskine pages

I'm applying for a Storefront Project in Downtown Durham. This is my sketch proposal. Below is what I submitted to the committee. Cross your fingers!

I've been moved by the overwhelmingly progressive response of Durham residents against Amendment One. My proposal is to take this feeling of pride in my city and turn it into a larger installation. Utilizing chalk markers (on the actual glass of a storefront) paired with hanging elements (paper, cardstock/watercolor paper) and three-dimensional handmade flowers (see "roses"), I hope to represent Durham's blossoming into a spring of hope for the rest of our state. I hope to transform the currently unused 329 West Main Street into a beautiful place of inspiration!

Usually a piece starts off as an idea (see "move forward and not back") and gradually emerges into a picture. The concept behind my proposal is that we find unity through inclusion and acceptance, through which we will hold up Durham as a beacon of progress.

In a drawing class when I was still at Cal Poly, the teacher asked us to bring in an object to draw. I brought in a Variable Gundam model I had built and posed it aggressively. Later I mounted the drawing on foamcore and tore away the edges to make an industrial-style frame. The four holes are where the aluminum thumbtacks were recessed in, pinning it to the wall of my bedroom. I also made a fully rendered color drawing of it as another exercise, but I have no picture of that because I gave it to my friend Norihiro in Japan - I mounted it in a foamcore frame that I lacquered with blue spray paint, the same that I had used on the color accents of the otherwise grey model.

I was trying to find soft enough pencil to go on this thin brown paper. Even Shorty 7B was not smooth enough. Blackwing is very comfortable here, so I drew it over with KUM on the top.

And I did go to the see to swim :)

Et pour finir, je vais faire un tour à cette mer :)

Took a break from homework at the Greenbean in Seattle, WA.

This sketch turned out to be harder than I thought it would because there were WAY more angles to get the right perspective on than I thought.

... minha fuga da rotina

I recently went to a blues bar in Atlanta called Blind Willies. It was a really exhilarating experience and I'm glad I brought my sketchbook.

We found seats during the second set and I sketched for the whole of it, keeping to the rhythm. I ended up being very exhausted after finishing the page. I just wanted to capture the expressions and energy from the band and part of the douchey crowd (mostly white popped collar types).

This is when i tried to learn something from the sketches drawn by Mikkel Frost from Cebra.

靠盃，我連續搭錯兩班車

These are the first proper drawings I have done in ... uh ... ages (7 years?). Inspired by urbansketchers.org, I got myself a proper sketchbook and some Faber-Castell artist pens in dark sepia, and started sketching. After a somewhat unhappy start, I produced these two quick sketches this afternoon. I did the one on the right at my dining table, while I was waiting for my lunch to finish cooking in the oven. The drawing on the left was done later in the afternoon and shows the view from my kitchen window. (We don't really have monstrously large birds here in Frankfurt ... just sayin'.)
