Hey look sketches!

So as it goes everyday after work I trudge along the insane Novato heat (why yes, I have been living in the Bay Area since the first day I've been in the US..so spoiled!).
And then proceed to wait in the abandoned theater stop until the next bus comes by. Eventually I got tired of twiddling my thumbs waiting around and bought a new sketch book *gasp*
Can't tell what a relief it is for me to actually do something instead of staring off into the distance....

Waiting for my art director to come by....

I don't smoke..but this grandpa does.

Bebee!

Couldn't sleep and now I'm starting to paint babies at 1 o'clock at night.
Sorry for making you look at bit fatter, miss/mister random baby reference model.

Wut?

Seriously need to go out and paint more. My lack of skills in painting is getting kinda embarrassing, yikes....

Fun times in an airplane hangar.....

Which seriously doesn't feel like one from inside. I've been trying to paint during my lunch breaks but usually end up messing around in photoshop instead. Duhr....
This is what I get to see outside the huge window in front of my area, in which I get blinded after 5 30 pm rolls by and the sun rays start jabbing me in the eyes.

Trees and more trees

Since I'm trying to keep being less sucky at painting...
And yes Miss Chrystal, these are still too green. I will try to do better next time!

Hmmm...I recently visited Kelly at her house in San Luis Obispo (never been there!) and dragged her to go out painting with me at a beach near her house.

It was all fun and good until I realized that the sand got mixed up with my paints after a while. Talk about plein air painting doy...you can see the grains that are stuck in which is pretty cool, although mixing the paint got frustrating after it creates this gunky and heavy texture.

Yarrr.....

Finally made myself go out and paint mindlessly..I find that painting actually help calm my nerves these days, so hopefully there will be more of these suckers popping out in the works.
Here's one from Barefoot Coffee..I'm totally down for painting anytime if anyone's up for it, so let me know, ya?
