sketchblog
Welcome to my "sketchblog" tag - here are all of my blog posts from over the years that contain sketches. From around 1999-2005 or so I had a separate blog just for sketches and doodles. Unfortunately some of these posts were lost, but I ported over what I could. Some of them I was able to reconstruct from old HTML files. And unfortunately in some cases, I had the post but couldn't figure out/couldn't find what sketch went with it. So I did my best to put these back together! I've also named any sketch/doodle posts from beyond 2005 "sketchblog" so everything is together!

i need some incentive.
Someone sent me this a while back and I never got a chance to look at it til today – random forum where some of my costumes were posted and I had to share one of the replies: “I wonder if she was auditioning for a series, or trying for an acting job and has downloaded her portfolio? Otherwise that…

a sketch and a wig
I’ve got a very rough sketch for you today… Well I didn’t get any major work done on costumes last night – I spent the majority of the night trying to figure out how to do my Amidala hair now that I have shorter hair. I thought it would be easier actually… but it wasn’t, I didn’t take into account…

exhausted
I didn’t post yesterday at all! I was just exhausted yesterday, mentally and physically. It was a push to get myself to sew last night… I feel like I’m beating my head against the wall with these costumes and it’s just so tiring and depressing. so here’s a sketch… I have no idea. I know I drew it in the…

Anyway today’s sketch… Poison Ivy It doesn’t come across in the scan… but there was a delicate-ness to this sketch that I really liked. I stopped working…

today was pretty icky. My migraine was still hanging in there, but my nausea was off the charts and I almost went home after lunch. But I hung in there… got home and took a little nap. Then Chase took a face cast of me for my Ms Marvel mask, which actually felt really good on my headache LOL and…

More Jane progress, kitchen updates
I got a lot of sewing done last night, enough to make me feel like I accomplished something. I got Jane’s top done, except for the little belt piece. Got the zipper put back in, the collar finished, and the sleeves finished. I’ve got to make the separate little piece for the collar now, and like I said, put the…

Kevin Buffington
Kevin is here with us, breaking in the futon. I’m thinking about taking him to the midnight release of New Moon on dvd tonight. Haven’t decided yet. I thought it would be fun but i’ll have to see how I feel closer to the time. Tomorrow we’re going to the flea market! I haven’t been in ages. I’m going to…

Snow White sketch
today’s sketch is another one from the same time as the Aurora in the last post. This Snow White either has some long arms or short legs LOL Yesterday was Day 3 of Insanity. My legs are really sore… it’s great. It’s really hard, and I can’t do all of it… but I’m getting a great workout. I have a…
