sketchbook

Charleston, South Carolina

I dug up this rock while hiking the Negev desert in Israel last year. It’s sharp and kinda chalky and it feels like it has stories to tell when you look deep into its lines and layers.

There’s a carnival going on inside my head.

After heavy snowing small streams at Käylä rapid in Kuusamo looks a fascinating subject

Man, I’ve been random lately. I think my mind’s eye sees stuff that normal people don’t. That might make me abnormal. I’m kinda comfortable with that. Guess who’s going to be watching some Clint Eastwood tonight?

Some crazy Moleskine doodles for the day. I haven’t been doing enough of these and really need to kick my butt harder. Not sure why because it’s so dang enjoyable.

To do list. I usually hate them but this one was kind of fun.

Quick illustration for the song of the White Buffalo. ”Come join the murder Come join the black” Familiar song from TV show Sons of Anarchy too

Doodles and notes I started at a regional NJ chapter of SCBWI conference this past weekend. Then just kept adding stuff to the page this week. I learned a lot and met some great people. Looking forward to June!

I got idea of how sky and sea encouter in Ying&yang

Tonight you should fall asleep with with fresh smudges of ink on your hands and fingers.

When in doubt, draw something analog.

First drawing i did in my animals in nest or hide-out serie. Want to use whole spread of Moleskine reporter Notebook

This is part of a broader idea for a big busy city teeming with different characters. Some of those characters will travel deeper through this city and through different lands. Eventually they get back to where they started from.

Drawn with a Pilot Custom 742 PO nib in my Moleskine sketchbook. Good times.

I have long been fascinated by the vision of a campfire in a dark forest and I have drawn a few versions of it with different results. This is the latest attempt

Sometimes I feel like my drawing is similar to composing music. I start drawing just something and hope that it begins its own life. In this drawing i start from the clouds and doesnt have any idea what it is gonna be at end.

In the migration seasons the geese and swans fly for the night to the sea get safe rest .And playing with positive and negative spaces

Another vision from imagination .

Tiny starflowers under trees are one part of macig at Finnish woods. This works point is more at illusion than realism
