Cramond Ahoy!

I thought about uploading some more sketches but I thought I'd show you this picture of me on Cramond Island. As I mentioned in my last post. From left to right, there is me, my boyfriend Ross and Vix. This is also proof I do actually talk to socialise and don't just act creepy drawing in the corners of coffee shops all the time.

Yes we all look a bit out of it, I am doing that sideways look and generally looking a bit sinister where as Ross is actually posing for the picture, hes such a tart.

It was a really good trip, though I was awake all night and by time I got back to my flat I was ready to fall over.

There have also been interesting developments between me and my good friend Benn is the way of comics so we are going to start putting those into action soon. When we eventually get it up then I will post the link. So watch this space.

Thanks for stopping by, Laura xx

Hands

Hand have always been a problem from many artists including myself.

Last night I was at a friends Birthday party and a girl was playing piano so I tried to sketch her hands. Trying to get the tone ofthe arm right and how crooked or uncrooked each finger is.

I also met Richard who is a student at Edinburgh University doing Greek, we had a chat about webcomics and anime it was pleasant. His webcomic is The Burnt Fen Maunderings.

This weekend i'm going to Cramond Island with Sciffy (Edinburgh University Science Fiction and Fantasy Society), who are an absolutely lovely bunch of people. This is end of the year thing and then alot of them are all going home which sucks, you suck guys! Not really I love Sciffy now, even though i've not been around till very late in the year I think I will join next year, the library is so cool >_<. Anyway I hope to maybe get some sketches and if I can get hold some, mulled wine.

In a couple of weeks me and my class are going to be at the Meadows festival so more information about that coming soon! So stay tuned.
