My creative intuitions have been in a rut for the last year. When I was still in school I'd draw at least once a day, but without class time to doodle and my art classes for my major I just haven't been able to build up the courage to produce anything worthwhile recently. Despite the fact that I've invested in several moleskines and sketchbooks to get my juices flowing, they've been filled to the brim with To Do lists and work notes and void of any interesting drawings. Sad panda, indeed.
Thankfully, Crap Artist's last pen pal package included a tiny, slim-paged sketchbook (the Caderno in the photo). One evening a few weeks ago I decided to try it out. Page by page I started to play around with ballpoint, my prismacolor markers, and other experiments. This sketchbook has something magical about it, and in turn i've been able to make a few drawings that I'm proud of again. Here are a few of the pages, all of which are being kept track of in my Caderno Flickr set:
Now that Flickr is back up and running as usuall, you can go see the entries for their colour contest when the site was down yesterday evening. Just search for photos tagged flickrcolourcontest and enjoy browsing the 800 or so entries!
But boy do they know how to make a sweet cover-up.
The last plush I made (which was a few weeks ago) was this Estradiol Plush. I made 5 of them in total, one for each of the members of ERBC project members that I worked with last summer. Since the primary animation I worked on was of estradiol's interactions with the estrogen receptor, I decided to be cute and make little estradiol blobs with happy faces on them. (kawaii? i think so.)
