Ir a dibujar más a menudo

Por Laura Frankstone en Chapel Hill, Carolina del Norte. Cada vez hago menos bocetos. Pinto más, ilustro más, pero dibujo menos. La solución a este problema para mí, dibujante desde los 2 años, parece ser seguir mi propio deseo de simplicidad. Lápices, papel y lo que a mi ojo le atrae, perdón por la expresión. [...]

Sleepy Sunday morning, Chapel Hill
I wanted to make sure to get some July sketches posted, so here they are. It’s overcast, very hot, and quiet today. I hope for rain.
Eating gelato
You would think that people sitting in a café that sells gelato, espresso drinks, cakes, and martinis would be happy. I thought they were happy as I drew them, if I thought about it at all. When I got home and looked at the faces in my sketchbook, I saw a different story. Was it […]
Bocetos de boutiques
I love the clothing shop run by two dear friends and have long wanted to sketch some vignettes of its interior. Here are three. Next time, I hope to include Amy and Katherine in the drawings… they were busy with customers when I made these.

Two restaurant vignettes, my town
I’m making lots of food illustrations for a foodlovers’ guide to our area, so this means I’ve been eating in lots of restaurants lately. Here are two recent sketches from all that dining! I also took a few moments to sketch President Obama last night, at his health care press conference. I added color today. […]
All around the town, with pen and paint
In the midst of a busy summer, I eked out a few sketches recently, three for the 23rd International Sketchcrawl yesterday and one, because why not. Happy July to one and all!
