.I draw stuff, when I'm not lazy it's alright stuff.

Someone recently told me if I spent more time drawing I actually might get good.

"Roy G Biv"
Pencil crayon and ink.
2010.


So I drew a little today,this was the first time I've drawn in over 6 months.Then I got bored and photoshopped them all.


Feeling sorta pleased with myself and my work I hopped on the ol' facebook and wrote :
"I draw stuff. When I'm not lazy it's pretty good stuff".
Of course today is the day my friends decide to actually pay attention to my posts.
A string of "Prove it" popped up on my page.
"Jerks" I muttered.

So I retracted my previous self horn toot and corrected myself.
"Okay, it's just alright".
Hence the blog showing off my, ahem, stuff.

"Baby, Don't reply, Don't reply""
Pencil crayon, ink,pencil, watercolour
2010.


Here's the deal, I've always loved making a mess with paints and pencils and markers but I'm lazy. I am the laziest artist you will ever meet. I hate taking the time to sit and really sketch things out, erase and fine tune. It makes my eyes hurt and I find I can't sit still long enough to really concentrate on what I'm trying to create. If I could force myself to really practice practice practice I might be better than I am.
"You could have made something of yourself, Lauren".
Sigh.
Oh well.
I just can't sit still.

Without the double layer.



I also have no patience for photo shop.
"Wooo neato, neon colours!".
"Hey,why don't you try..."
"...Nope, bored now".
Jack of all trades, master of none.





I guess the whole point was to you know, proooove that I can sort of draw stuff, and it's sort of alright I think.

  1. Most of the drawings are decent. The last one sucks though.
