The Sketchbook Project begins...

I've been nervous about this project - I've always had a rough time getting my ideas and thoughts from my mind's eye to the page or whatever medium I'm working in. *Sigh* this time is no different.

I tried to start early, even before the book came.... so I started with some storyboarding, which I promptly lost. So I started with some more storyboarding, which I finally worked out the beginnings of what can only mean I will need to be removing pages or gluing many together because each spread seems like it will be a lot of work! Especially considering the holidays, the extra work I've picked up and the holidays around the corner. My deadline is January 15th I believe.

Well anyway, here is my efforts towards my first page spread. This was inspired by a peacock we saw, wandering around like just another chicken, over at the rec center one day when we were waiting to pick up Grandma.



Enjoy!

  2. Hi there! Thanks so much Avery, I don't really have papercraft skills, but can sorta draw. I think it's a requirement for art majors, lol. Need to do more pages!
