How I draw [part 1]

September 16, 2011


I took a short video of me drawing a simple sketch for your enjoyment/entertainment. This was sketched in about 10 minutes total, but I compressed it down to 1:40 to keep you from getting too bored. Unfortunately the video is bit grainy, so bear with me a bit.  Music is “Eye” by Spangle call Lilli line.

I always enjoy seeing how other people work and their workspaces. It’s like getting a sneak peak into what they’re  thinking while they create something new. I know a lot of people do tutorials or show the process of their work, but seeing something drawn line by line, stroke by stroke, is incredibly interesting. I don’t often have the chance to see many people draw, so I’m not sure if my process is normal or not. How do you draw?

A recent fashion illustration I created for Myss who’s launching her new site The Glamourholic Wife Blog. Check it out.

Ginza Ad

買い物が日本の力になる。”Shopping will become Japan’s power.” Basically “Buy stuff with you JCB credit card!”

I don’t spend much time in Ginza, or east Tokyo in general. I’m not sure why but it seems like I never really have any reason to go there. Maybe it’s the fact that there seems to be absolutely nothing worth doing near Tokyo Station besides stare at all the skyscraper office buildings. Ginza is good for window shopping, especially because a lot of flagship stores are located there, including the Abercrombie & Fitch store that always seems to reek of cologne and techno music; but I wouldn’t recommend it for any actual shopping. Sure, Imperial Palace Gardens near Marunochi are nice but doing it more than once isn’t very entertaining. If you are in the area, I do recommend you rent a bike (for free) to ride around the Imperial Palace. Actually, there are plenty of things to do in east Tokyo. ;)

Today I just happened to be in Ginza minding my own business and stumbled across a this ad with pictures of Rumi Neely from Fashion Toast, whom I illustrated a while back, in the middle a department store. She seems to be pretty popular here in japan because I’ve spotted a few other ads of her’s here in Tokyo including one in the OIOI [pronounced marui] department store. What’s interesting is underneath each picture there was an いいね button, which is the Facebook ‘like’ button in japanese. Above each button is a display of the total likes for each photo. Facebook meets real life.

Every photo has a Facebook like button with the number of ‘likes’ displayed.

fashion headA while back I had the idea of doing a rework/remix of an earlier illustration I did called fashion heads. This was teased before, but here’s the first completed head of the next series. Fashion Heads Two. Stay tuned.
