This is the final version of the warm up sketch shown a couple posts ago.
The proportions are better and I've added more details. I'll add a little color to it, either with watercolor or color pencil in the near future.

Fused Plastic With Grocery Bags
This weekend I attempted to make fused plastic using grocery bags.
It was fun trying to create designs and see what comes out. I think I had the iron on a little to high and it created small holes here and there in the plastic as it shrunk under the heat.
The idea is add paper inside and make small pocket notebooks for random thoughts or notes. The plastic is the cover.
Here's the first try:

Urban Sketch Coffee Shop
I got all three books from Steven Reddy from his last Kickstarter campaign and feel inspired. His style is fun, has incredible details, and feels attainable.
I went to the coffee shop this morning to try his technique of on the spot, no-pencil, ink-only approach to drawing.
I didn't get to finish as it was time to go but plan on going back and doing the rest soon.
It was fun doing this in ink and not worrying about making anything perfect, just going with the flow.
Here's how far I got this :morning:
