Tel Aviv Sketchcrawl

Hey, this is the last sketchbook post over here! There will be one more message from the managment, but for now please subscribe to the jpvine.com blog....

BY CLICKING HERE. :)

We were pretty wary of some heavy rains this weekend. Well hey, I'm british, so rain is nuthin'. But my Israeli friends are delicate flowers, so we opted for a nice cafe on Rothschild Boulevard, Tel aviv's most groovy, Bauhausy, and pleasingly human-scaled boulevard. Sketched there. Drank belgian beer on an empty stomach so sketches got wobbly. Then grabbed a gourmet burger at Moses, down the road. Nice, and simple.

A Drawing of the road:

And some of our fellow cafe dwellers. One couple did not like being sketched one bit, and went off in a huff...





This Girl had an interesting bottom lip. Glad she didn't ask to see my sketchbook.

I wound up at the pool, and thought I'd draw these old boys chewing the cud in the hot tub:

Death From above, p2


Spinnig a few arty plates right now, but continuing on the comic. Here's page 2, and I'm slowly getting comfortable with the look of the piece. More to come!

Death from above


I’ve been looking for reasons to practice my layout and comics skills, and this weeks Illustration Friday topic, ‘Focused’ is as good as any. It was a toss up between this idea and a rabbit staring at himself in the mirror. This seemed more dynamic, in the end. I’m pretty comfortable setting up a sequence in film formats, but -er- doing comics is hard!

Head on over to http://jpvine.com/2010/02/02/death-from-above/
to see work in progress, and may I remind you to sign in over there if you follow this blog, which I'll stop posting to in two posts time. Thanks!

RraaaaR!

although this is more of a RaaaR! of fear than anything else. I draw pirates all day right now, but none of them are this hairy or ginger.

and a reminder: I've moved my blogging to jpvine.com, I'll continue to post here for only three more posts, but if you follow this blog, please sign in over there.

Have a great day. We're going to have another snowball fight at lunchtime, methinks.
