ASAD Sketch #60 - Did you receive my carrier pigeon?

Sketch 60 Day 60 - Ok just a little rant. I've had issues with my mobile phone. Today in particular, when I never received the credits I paid for. Although customer service was helpful, it was a pain to have to wait and call up different representatives to solve my problem. Phooey. I think carrier pigeons would be much more reliable.

ASAD Sketch #59 - You're a witch Kris...I'm a what?

Sketch 59 Day 59 - While we're still on the subject...here's me as a witch.

ASAD Sketch #58 - Goodbye Potter movie franchise

Sketch 58 Day 58 - It's been about 10 years since I read the first Harry Potter book. I remember how swept away I was by the story. I was indeed spellbound. JK Rowling you genius, I thought. Then came the film adaptation. As much as I was attached to the book, I still looked forward to seeing it . Hmm sure let's see 'somebody else's' interpretation of the book. Naturally, I found myself making mental debates throughout the film. This went down like..That wasn't how I imagined Hermione, Ron or Harry to look...whaaa? they totally reworked one of the best parts of the book!...the acting seemed to lack spirit to how I imagined it in the book...etc. I walked out the cinema a little disappointed, I had high expectations. I preferred my imagination. Come 10 years later, I actually didn't stop myself from watching the other films that followed. It grew on me, I grew a love for them. I even own the dvd's for goodness sake. I am indeed spellbound for all things Potter.

Ok about my sketch -  just a heads up to those who haven't read or seen the last instalment of Mr. Harry Potter. I actually haven't seen the new film yet either only read the book ;) For those who don't want to know a tiny spoiler, I'd probably stop reading from here. But it's no biggie. Just my interpretation of Harry Potter's daughter, Lily Potter. 

ASAD Sketch #57 - wedding planner

Sketch 57 Day 57 - Visited a wedding planner for a friend last weekend. Her home was exquisite. Beautiful vintage furnishings, like something you see out of a home style magazine. We also had the privilege to see her wonderful vintage wardrobe. Her dresses and jewellery had me gaping. Lovely lady who knows her style.

ASAD Sketch #56 - Countryfolk

Sketch 56 Day 56 - As mentioned in the previous post, I went on a road trip with a few friends to a small country town in the mountains. Met some interesting people..

Bee-Ewe-Tea-Full

Hey there ! Back again. Breaks are always good. Nice to put the ole brain on standby and do other things like..cleaning. Nah just did a bit of that. Let's see, I practised playing the guitar. Also took a trip to the countryside to help plan a friend's wedding. Nice to visit a new part of town. Opens up the eyes to new things. Then I got withdrawal symptoms. Yes I missed drawing. And blogging. Just my creative head space.

Here's a drawing I did before my break. They're pictorial words or a pictogram if you will. Been thinking of designing pictograms for while, this is my first attempt. I think they're fun, they remind me of symbols used in Ancient History. I like to see it as a form of a puzzle, where you try to work out what the pictures convey. I think it's fun that way. Hmm..will explore this area further.
