hearts and an eye

I got some new etch a sketches in the mail.  I did these two on the small one the night it came.

Somehow this survived a long, bumpy bike ride home in my bag without being erased.

first permanent sketch

I successfully attempted the permanentization procedure last night for the first time on this sketch.  As it is the first permanent sketch it is also the first one for sale.

This one's not that great, but I like it.  I utilized it for some album cover art:

buy stuff?

People tell me I could make money, that I should sell my drawings.  I do want to start keeping some of them instead of just taking pictures and then shaking them up.  I must learn the art of making the sketches permanent.  So I guess starting real soon most of the sketches you see will probably be for sale.

I do commissions too, perhaps.  Tell me what you want me to sketch, and maybe I will do it for you for a reasonable price.

Revival

I've decided to revive this blog.  I want to start playing with my etch-a-sketches again.  It won't be so much 'etch-a-sketch-a-day', but more like 'etch-a-sketch-a-month'.  First some old sketches I never got around to posting.

first full-sized sketch

The same day that I decided to start taking pictures I also decided to buy a full-sized etch a sketch. I wandered around Manhattan in the pouring rain for a while looking for a place to buy one. Mission finally accomplished, soaked, on the subway ride home, I drew this.

first sketch post

This one sat on my desk for about two weeks because I didn't want to erase it. That's when I decided to start taking pictures.
