sketches : summer time

Being at work today was excruciating due to the fact that the weather outside was [is] awesome X)
So here's Nigel (it grew on me) saluting you doing what I've been longing to do all day at work; sitting outside in the sun with a good glass of Sex on the Beach. ^^



.. However, I'm out of Peach liqeour because I forgot to buy it in the Duty Free store when I came home from London ;__;

sketches : sheepie

A sheep character of mine I tend to draw alot, because I like him ^^ He goes by the name of 'Sheepie' in everyday life.. because I'm always too lazy to name things. I really should give him a nice name, like Nigel or something :P

pictures : London

Just got back from London today. Was quite disappointed with the school; turned out to be an artsy type of school but not the fundamental drawing/illustration/animation .. thingie.. I was going after. Meaning more ideas/political debate stuff etc. instead of just old fashioned drawing and preparing you for working for studios etc.

So Academy of Arts is back the top of my list again. It seems to be the only school that has everything I want plus, well, being in San Francisco, heh ^^

Anyway, got to spend a short while at the London Zoo and the London Aquarium, plus seeing the Lion King in Lyceum theatre.

The tiger at the zoo was pretty frisky :D He got so close it was so awesome ^^




One always learns new things when travellin abroad :|

sketches: work stuff

I r dum XD
I've always been too lazy taking pictures with me from work to scan so they usually end up in the bin.
..but I forgot I have a camera phone. Yes, you may smack me in the head.

So a couple of test pics :D


Something random. How can one not love a frumpy penguin?


The new IKEA STOCKHOLM brochure has this picture of a dog on the front cover. Got bored and decided to draw the doggie. I just like how his face and ears turned out :P

Og svona fyrir ykkur hina blýantsóðu Íslendingana, þá er IKEA komnir með línu af u.þ.b. A5 (22x16 cm) skissubókum. Soldil gamaldags áferð á coverinu, 80 blaðsíður, og fínn pappír. Bara 395kall.

Er sjálf orðin þreytt á að sjá almennilegar skissubækur seldar á næstum 1000kall stykkið -_-

pictures : our cat

There are probably not going to be any sketch posts in this journal for a while since all my time right now is going into making pictures for my portfolio :P

Because after a week I'm going to London for a University interview :O

Anyway, son of Satan our cat turned 1 year old on May 25th (according to my mother-in-law, I just trust that she has the date right). So here are some pics of him.
