Description
Great title I know, how do I manage to keep coming up with these, eh?
Finally got it to scan properly - colours just about same as the real thing now, at last...
Personally love the colours but maybe biassed...
Drawn freehand with Staedtler pens - 1.0, 0.7 and 0.5 on a basic watercolour sunset thingie...
Original size is A4-ish
Created 2006
EDIT Re`scanned Mar `11 as old scanner was pants

see.... i have potential to draw like this but when i sit down with a pen and paper im like where exactly do i go next... like i get the first design in and then im like "a window next" or something.. windows are so blank... i need some god damn direction i think.. and wonder..

Learned free-association at college, though this is derived after years and years of practicising... and being slightly
Its easy don`t picture ANYTHING like mine!!! That`ll just drive you crazy
Seriously though easiest way is to half-watch music channel, get pad at ready - right first have a design to repeat randomly throughout the drawing... got that right now draw anything that comes into mind... a cat... listen to song... a broken-heart... someone comes in... boot... etc... interspersed with you fav pattern... You NEVER know what it will end up looking like - BTW start from centre though!
As I`m going insane it might just be me though..

I have a clear plastic A3 folder that has well over 40 pieces that are in various stages of work - that way I can just do whatever I feel like finishing at the time...

Get fed up with them... Some only have a corner or so left to do, but can`t be doing with it - then they`ll be an odd day and I`ll just whizz through and finish loads - it may be crazy but it works for me

I really love the pic- it gets me thinking all sort of things and inventing all sort of little stories attributed to the picture's meaning :3...it's really great when a pic can make the viewer's mind wander like this one did
personally, I think not only darkness awaits inside this pic...:3...

English is a hard language...
