Tiny things

I've been sorting all my paintbrushes and pencils into jars on my desk this morning, which made me ridiculously happy and excited.

I'm going to be trying to upload a lot more odd sketches and scribbles.

Yo Adrienne!

Been busying myself with a couple of competitions. This is another one run by Little White Lies Magazine to portray one's favourite film within a black & white six-panel comic strip template, the idea being that someone who's never seen the film could interpret the full story by reading this comic. Tricky. I chose the mighty Rocky. I tried to show the central events and scenes while also communicating the tone and overall message of the film, and also to allude to it's supporting characters and motifs without distracting from the main story.

A bit of a rush in the end, but I enjoyed this loads. Quite a departure from what I usually do, but I learned a lot of stuff that's definitely feeding into my more everyday work already.

On the subject of windmills... This is also really old. I seemed to go through a little phase a while back where I'd paint skies ridiculous colours. In this case, it was bright yellow. I don't know what that was about. I just dug this out and photoshopped the blue in and it looks 100 times better. I never liked this painting (apart from 2 sheep), and it probably won't be on the new version of my website, but I thought I'd put it up here anyway.

I am working on some new stuff, honest.

The videos I posted yesterday don't seem to be working. I'm not sure why?
