I can't remember if I've talked about confidence much in the past, but it's definitely been on my mind this week. The usual theme might be how to overcome a lack of confidence, which is important to learn, although too much can be a curse. In fact, there have been many times in life that an overabundance of confidence managed to lead certain folks astray.
It was bound to happen sometime, but I skipped sketchbook 84 last week thanks to a bunch of personal commitments and generally being too busy. The up side is that part of the distraction was related to a big art project, so I figure it all balances out in the end. I'm still not keen on skipping weeks, so here's hoping it's a rare occurrence either way.
Sometimes it's easy to forget that the world is a constant mass of writhing organisms, constantly changing and evolving into different forms. I suppose it's what people mean when they say "back in my day", as their 'day' felt a lot different to the now. Of course there are tangible changes being made at all times, but I had the pleasure this week of experiencing a more ethereal form of nostalgia.
This week I spent a bit more time on a digital sketch, so it's not really a doodle per se, but I've included it on purpose. In comparison to the limitations of pen on paper, I was reminded that digital sketching offers a lot of nuance and detail. I was also reminded that I don't suck as much as I thought I did.
Last time I mentioned that I'll be changing things up a little to try and up the quantity of doodles in each post. So this week I'm pleased to say that I have twelve new doodles, as well as a little bit of discussion on how they came about.
