final on the Enterprise D

I didnt really go into detail on the characters...unusual for me but I thought this was an out of the box for me... a little more "loose"

Toying with an idea

As some people may know, Im a bit of a nerd! An idea hit me earlier tonight, that I should depict a 'Starship Enterprise D movie night', and all the shenanigans involved. So here is the start of this (very rough and nowhere near final) this is more of a blocking and idea forming drawing...something i dont usually post on here!

 

A bit of a hiatus on the drawing after the Louise Dearman run...

Ive updated the website with some of those drawings and organized it a little on the ghost stories as well! Also,  here's an updated version of my final Louise drawing.

Last submission for Louise Dearman!

27 drawings of Loise Dearman, and I can say the last two are definitely my favourites. Here's my final submission for her contest ♥  Top one was yesterday,  bottom is tonight!

 

 

#25 of Louise Dearman

I believe the winners of Louise Dearman's little FB & Twitter contests are announced on friday and Sunday.... Then I wont be drawing her (as much) Here's #25!

 

 

#24 of Louise Dearman

...another low res. reference pic for #24 of Louise Dearman. In many ways they are more fun, because I kind of have to draw from memory and feeling, and not so much reference.

 

 

#23 of Louise Dearman

Continuing my trend of simplicity...

#22 of Louise Dearman

..and here's today's! I'm not gonna lie, I struggled today. I'm super tired and I'm in a mood. Clearly my drawing suffers as a result ...that being said its the act of drawing and not always the end result that matters.

#21 of Louise Dearman

this one is a bit late, but I will also have another one tonight... Here's last night's..

#20 of Louise Dearman

Here is drawing 20 of Louise Dearman! I tried to keep it under 2 hrs today but couldn't (3hrs) ...perfectionist for life I guess ;) Louise Dearman has challenged people on her fan pages to keep it bottle necked with peoples posts! Im continuing to do so with what i do best (drawing)

#19 of Louise Dearman

Here's #19 of Louise Dearman! ...Still wish I could see her on Saturday (or once more as Glinda at least) ...Saturday is her last day as Glinda in London's production of Wicked! :( 

#18 of Louise Dearman

..tried using a low res image for reference on this one. Its a fair test, to see how much detail I remember from nearly 3 weeks of drawing Louise Dearman. here's #18 

#17 of Louise Dearman

I've waited until I feel confident enough to draw this one! it's my favourite picture of her! #17 of Louise  <3

Back to basics ...#16 of louise Dearman

I feel like I was trying to have too much going on, with my last few...so instead of worrying about whats in the picture, I'm going to concentrate on how I'm drawing it!

#15 of Louise Dearman, with none other than Alan!

...continuing my drawings of Louise Dearman. Louise wanted all her Facebook & Twitter fans to basically flood her pages with fan comments etc... I'm not one for writing, so this is what I'm doing! She has promised to give back for the appreciation! What a way to get people involved...

#14 of Louise Dearman

...and here's Louise Dearman drawing # 14! Cutting it close today, but its in on time. I was hoping to get out in time to see the Muppet Movie... guess itll be tomorrow!

 

 

#13 of Louise Dearman

Here's drawing #13 of Louise! Wow 13 already ...I'm fighting a migraine, so I'm calling it done. Here's hopin I like it when I can see better. Goodnight 

 

 

#12 of Louise Dearman

Tonight's drawing of Louise (#12) is courtesy of Fonsaca Malyan-Brooker's awesome photo from Louise's latest gig! Thank you so much for letting me draw it! I hope I did it justice! X 

 

#11 of Louise Dearman

Today is my 11th installment of drawing @LouiseDearman, and it is another one involving @racheltucker1! <3 to both

#10 of Louise Dearman

I must admit Im starting to find less and less photo reference I can use here...

#9 of Louise Dearman

Long day today...

#8 of Louise Dearman

Pretty tired today... didnt feel like doing colour, that would be too much thinking ;)

#7 of Louise Dearman

Sitting in a freezing coffee shop drawing this one! drawing #7 of Louise. ♥'Nuf Said!

#6 of Louise Dearman

Louise Dearman #5

I added another person, Rachel Tucker ...this one took a lot longer haha!

Louise Dearman #4

Drawing #4 for Louise Dearman. I'm trying to win stuff, by making the biggest presence on her FB and Twitter pages. Kinda fun, and a really cool way for her to get people involved...I sure am!

Picture #3 of Louise Dearman

She actually replied to the last one but I wanna keep going and make this list. not a lot of time today so I have a rarity... pencil!

Louise Dearman #2

Its fun drawing the same person so much...reminds me of my summer after second year at ACAD! practice has to be worth it. plus Im working to get swag from her in the process... she is rewarding the people who have the largest presence on her Facebook & Twitter pages.

Im drawing her everyday until she notices.

<3 Louise Dearman.

Tonight's drawing...

This is my friend and former co-worker...I used 3 different photos for this one and made a composite image. There weren't any photos with this expression, but I wanted him to have it!

Final on Kitty...

a few adjustments including colour and composition.

Change of pace...

Here's a pic I just drew of my cat... I forgot how fun animals can be!

Lets call this the hour and a half portrait.

Just a few adjustments...

1 Hour Portrait...

seriously one hour!

today I really had no desire to draw...

...but I did anyways! 2 hours in on this one, now its bed time!

More Ellie Goulding

I seriously cant get enough of Ellie. xxxooo

Keeping up on my political direction

Just to show I'm not at all Partisan... im tossing around an idea for the 'De-volution of the Liberal Party of Canada' this isn't a drawing yet...just an idea Ive put together... it will sort of mock the ideal evolution scale.

Now for some political fun... 'Pinocchio' the Canadian version.

I lied... I dived into some political stuff.. but drawing is drawing :)

For My Next Trick...

Ive decided to go back to portraits for a bit here... stay tuned as Im going to give the regular cast of the BBC show Q.I. a go!

The Show is up!

Here's a Story Thats a Bit Closer to Home

This is my mom and my aunt when they were kids... every night someone came out of their closet, walked over and tucked them in. The dog even saw it/her, but didnt make any sounds. the most visible thing about this ghost was a cigarette cherry. This tells me it could also be my grandma, but maybe all ghost stories have a shred of reality right? started this one today and this is where I am... lots more to do but a hell of a start!

So just to beat a dead horse...

heres the story to go along with the pics:

Over the last 30 years, there have been similar stories of a skinny (and very creepy) ‘Punker’ who only shows up when people seem to be in trouble. He comes to the people in trouble first, and asks if they need help. He then goes to others and tells them where they may find the person in need. More times than not it takes the people a while to believe this fellow, due to just how odd and creepy he comes across! The descriptions are all very similar, and are believed to refer to a young man who died in the same area, of hypothermia in the early 70’s. 

I lied...I tweaked some more

I moved the people over so it didnt look like Tom (the pointing ghost) was growing out of the one guys head. I fixed the clouds and stars ever so slightly ...this is one of those pics that I could tweak until I ruin it. So Im drawing the line here!

I think I'm done this series

so this is final on the 3rd in the first series

Last pic in Series One

getting there on this one also... colour not matched up yet but its coming along...

filling you in with the latest fixins...

Heres the  finals for the first 2 in the original series. I took Tom out of the original scene and put him into the second one... works better for it, and lets the original scene be creepy with only the environment. Thats what Im talkin about!
