Sketchbook Pages... 

Thought it might be interesting to see some ideas behind the work and like inspiration and stuff >>>

 

 Some artists and people who inspired me as well as ideas and events ^
 Ideas for a panoramic etching I had ^
 Errr bit random, one of my ideas for... illustrations i dunno what i was really going for... some kind of animal slash electrical items... i dunno...? ^

 Got inspired by some wolf sculptures I saw and did some wolf-esk sketches, I think I will persue this sometime... ^
 I was messing about with my shiney new dip pen nibs just seeing what I could do and what broke them... : s ... ^
 Obviously another skull, can probably tell im a bit obsessed with them but, they are lovely to draw... i think anyway... ^


 More ideas on this page, i like doing lists, its another story if i actually tick the lists off though... that im not so good at, but i have the best intentions to start with! very gun ho! ^

 More Ideas... mainly for etchings
