Illustration // Dreaming of Candy Floss and Lemonade.

I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that you shouldn't blog if you have nothing to say, and I agree that completely makes sense ... however sometimes I like to just write complete an utter rubbish. By rubbish I mean the nonsensical ramblings of my mind, which are lets face it perhaps not the most interesting thing to read. Lets take all of the above for example, I didn't need to write it. I could of just started the post off by simply getting to the point but strangely seeing the blank white box filled me with this need to ramble on: well about quite frankly nothing! (I have blank box-phobia or should I say #blankboxphobia ... no, no I really should just stay away from the hashtags... I thought I could but no, no I can't! I promise I will never attempt that again!)

OK so I went a little bit off point there (or a lot), but I thought I'd just quickly share a few little snapshots of this random illustration I started earlier. Its nothing special though, as although arts kind of "my thing" so to speak, I seem to lack the ability to actually draw ... tragic, I know! I've always loved illustration though despite leaning more towards fine art in recent years, however I thought It would be quite "fun" (honestly It pains me to use that word) to share some of it on here. As you can tell this isn't yet finished, but I've always loved it when other people do sort of "works in progress" style posts, so I thought why not? I never really seem to show the stuff I "attempt" to draw in this sketchbook to anyone so I'm not sure whether or not any of this is even remotely good ... I guess  I'll let you be the judge!

Oh and yeah I weirdly always draw the face last ... I work a little backwards, I know! I'm weird like that!

... and lastly the headphones are from Urbanears in the colour coral (the plattan model). I definitely recommend you buy a pair of these, I promise you will never look back!
