Apartment Doodle and Work

A quick sketch of an apartment across the street during lunch today.
Two of my friends got hired at my company, and one of them started this week. :) So we have been taking short walks on our lunches and drawing things. It's nice having a sketching buddy again!
Work is hard. Somehow I am now doing graphic design... cause we are so swamped with card design orders. Too bad I was never actually trained in graphic design, so I am winging it mostly. I am doing well, but am way slow! It's becoming a bit of a problem so I stayed late at work today... until 7pm. Which means I put in a 10 hour day (not counting my hour lunch). The hardest part about my day is coming home to my desktop and readjusting myself to using PC hotkeys and shortcuts instead of Mac ones lol. I keep hitting ALT instead of CTRL. Ah, artist issues.

Post-Halloween Pumpkins

I really haven't been drawing much lately :( Even these were drawn near the beginning of October, but I just didn't get around to scanning them until now. Correction: I haven't been drawing much ON MY OWN. I draw plenty for my freelance job :) P.S. its here: http://www.youtube.com/user/watchwellcast

I do some episodes along with some awesome fellow animators. It's really fun, though stressful and time consuming especially cause I still have my full time job to do! But it's ok, what else am I doing with my life right now? Basically just watching Dancing with the Stars with my grandma. But now my friend Whitney is helping me with episodes, so it'll be less pressure on me for the deadlines.

I can't believe it's already November! I  have to start planning Christmas presents before it sneaks up on me... and buy my CTN ticket... I suppose this year I'll only be able to go on Sunday, as I work on Friday and have a funeral to go to on Saturday :( So I guess it's a good thing that I didn't buy a 3-day ticket earlier this year. It'll still be a good time to go to a few panels and check out some awesome animations and artwork. Until then, I have to get my act together, update my website and make more business cards!

What to do with boring flats

Just a couple more pages of random doodles. The first are some ideas of what to do with these boring shoes I have. I ended up buying ribbon and gluing bows to them :) Mustaches and monocles would've been cool too though. The second are just random drawings... a couple kids making halloween costumes out of bath towels :)

Girly profiles

Making up some random people while I render out After Effects videos :) P.S. some hairstyles may or may not be inspired by all those Pinterest pins about hair.

Cats and Desk

Some work doodles from this week. I have a few more, and will post more throughout the week. I miss my kitties, so I drew them on post-it notes and posted them to my computer to keep me company while I work :) The desk was just a doodle to see if I remember what my desk looks like (the trim on the desk is completely off but other than that it's pretty accurate!)

More Heads

Some more head drawings doodled during work! And a couple cats for good measure :)

Babcia's House #1

I think it's high time for me to begin documenting my "adventures" while living at my grandmother's house. In very rushed, sketchy comic strip form. I have a few good ideas already, and hope to do one every couple of days or so from now on. So here is the first. Basically, I spent a good part of my afternoon going through my grandmother's collection of quarters, trying to find every state to fill up these collectable booklet things my grandfather got back in the early 2000s. For some reason, she insists on filling up all 5 of them. We are still missing some states, and even though the booklets say they all became circulated by 2008, she doesn't believe that they have been minted yet. Oh, grandma.
