the Sketchbook Project Update

It's been a few weeks since I've gotten my sketchbook. I've only just finished the first two pages but I feel like I'll have this done before Christmas.

I had no idea what to do on my first page. The first page of any sketchbook is always so scary. You want it to be your best work because it's the first page everyone will see. I almost ended up starting in the middle of the sketchbook.

The first sketch I did was of this old beardy man. I might possibly end up doing another beardy old man.

Check out my new markers I bought at the dollar store. You know what's coming next, right?

On the next page, I decided to do one of my dotted-hair girls or marker doodles? (no clue what to call them) Stippling with markers. I do it when I don't know what to draw. It's a good way to keep busy.


P.S. I've seen a lot of people use both sides of the pages in their sketchbooks. As you can see in the second scan, you can see right through the first page. I almost always ink my drawings, so I'll probably just stick to using one side of the page.
