Dr Sketchy Nottingham

Dr Sketchy's Winter Wonderland

Another lovely afternoon at Dr Sketchy's. I also won a hat! (which I will actually wear)

Me :)

Filming.

masks!

we needed a forest.

One of my projects this term is a collaboration (well, for me anyway) with the Theatre & Performance course, and consists of making a music video for a song we got handed by the tutors. It's been a hell of a lot of work, and we've only just finished filming, but definitely was good fun. Once the final video is all nice and polished up it will be uploaded. For now, just some photos of our day in the green studio.

pandalikes...

Giacomo Bevilacqua's sweet weekly pages.

Il fumetto. Da quando era nato, per più di un secolo è stato disprezzato e sottovalutato.

Ma dopo tante battaglie, oggi il fumetto è finalmente considerato "la nona arte". La settima sono gli oggetti in pasta di sale. L'ottava il rutto parlato.

Comics. Since they were born, for over a century they were despised and underestimated.

But after many battles, today comics are finally considered "the ninth art". The seventh are salt dough objects. The eighth is talking in burps.

(The best translation for "fumetto" would probably include graphic novels as well, but hey, I tried to keep it simple. Oh and the quote is from Rat-Man)

waheey I'm on a flyer!

something else.

Beau & Bea last two pages!

Except they still need a little tweaking here and there (and the bottom left panel needs to change, it's horrible).
Script by Carmine De Matteis.

Lindisfarne.

I've recently been a little obsessed with James Blake.

Beau and Bea (still 2 pages to go)

The first three pages (vaguely) based on Beauty and the Beast for the next issue of Ink Soup!
I've been quite slow what with summer and all, but I'm getting there.

Lips purple.

I am set on learning how to properly use watercolours.

my art peaked when i was about 5

A baby Botero maybe?

Visual journal of Botswana

In July I had the amazing experience of seeing a little bit of Botswana and Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe. It was such a beautiful experience, I thought I should at least try to draw a little of what I saw (not very well, but hey, I need to improve my observational drawing so where better to start from?). The photos I took, although I don't consider myself a great photographer, already don't do the place any justice.

 

(the one thing I really miss about Africa, which I saw the first time I went, is its summer sky. The first time I went was December, full-blown summer in South Africa, and the rainy season, you had all these magnificent clouds, hanging on the enormous sky so close it seemed as though you could touch them. Since then I've only been able to go in July, so winter over there, when there's not a cloud in sight.)

My drawing probably don't do justice to the place, but I had great fun doing them and even now they remind me of lots of things I would otherwise have forgotten.
