Heres a few doodles I did while waiting for some paintings to dry. A bonus of being home is I get to chill with one of my best buds, my German Shepherd Wile. E. I grew up with this dude. He's getting older, so I'm trying to take advantage of this time. I wanted to try something I read about: spraying milk onto your charcoal for an interesting effect. Edel Rodgriguez talks about it here. Not sure if I'm doing it right, but it was a good time. Definitely had the great drawings of my buddy Trey Bryan in the back of my head while doing these.

Here he is kickin it in my painting space:




take care,

Solid, solid drawing. I wish more people took the time to really learn how to DRAW. Francis, your work is so good... sometimes, you make me feel lazy. That's a good thing.

Someone had their dog at the studio the other day and it was awesome having her around to draw. Everyone in the art department seemed chill and more positive. :) Nice sketches as always
