On Da Desk


This is what I'm working on right now.  The photo reference is from a site called Unsplash.  Unsplash is loaded with photo images that you can use for free. Very cool.

What I'm coming to learn from trying to do this exercise is the variation in tonal value (lightness/darkness). I'm also learning to ignore the flaws that I discover in my initial sketch and to just keep going. And enjoy. Maybe it's a life lesson thing too, no?

Jalna, living on da back side of Diamond Head we could not get the TV signals from Honolulu to watch TV. The mountain blocked da signal. So my Dad bought a huge TV antenna and I helped him put it on our roof. And we aimed it toward Maui. We watched TV Live from Maui!

Pretty creative.... YA>?!
