Still Just Doodling


As I try to find a way to make a living on my art I find myself creating almost everyday. Some days I have more drive than others. The crazy thing is, I never really seem to get tired of drawing, sculpting or doodling. Many times I look around on the net to find different styles and artists. As I find something new I play around with new shapes and designs while trying to work them into my own style. These here are just a few from the past day or two. These are not completed compositions, they are just doodles. I hope you can see the creative process here.

With most of these illustrations, I've been focusing on the shadowing on the floor and the walls. I'm also playing with different kinds of textures.

Love the shadows in the one on the right - kind of a spooky feeling.

MD, I'm glad that you like the shadows. I just figured, that, if I'm going to illustrate these sculptures. I might as well better my photoshop skills as well.

Ah ha! Here are the works that I saw on Flickr and wondered how I missed them on your blog. I guess I won't repeat myself, so if anyone truly wants to see my humble opinion on your fantastic doodles, they'll just have to look on your Flickr photostream!
