039 - The King's Speech

Brush Pen on Sketchbook Paper

I spent most of Tuesday resting and recuperating.  I did this doodle while watching The King's Speech. The man in the image is pulled from both Colin Firth and Geoffrey Rush.  I don't want to give away any spoilers, but there are no cockatiels in the film.  I have no idea where this one came from or why it's in this doodle. 

038 - LAME

Dying Brush Pen on Sketchbook Paper

After a 10 hour drive back home from Pittsburgh, I was exhausted!  I didn't want to do my daily doodle, and then the pen I choose was empty of ink.  The whole thing was just LAME.

037 - Making a Come Back!

Fancy Japanese Pen on Sketch Book Paper

Day 37, I ran into my friend Ian Jay from school in the hang out room after the convention closed for the year.  He had this fancy pen he got in Japan that made me draw like he does!  At this point at the con I was thoroughly exhausted and my brain was over run with giant plush creatures hanging around everywhere!  It took 4 days after the convention for me to stop dreaming that I was forever stuck in that dealer's room!

036 - Rock Bottom

Pencil on Sketchbook Paper

Day 36 was me reaching rock bottom of my Daily Doodles while at the convention.  I was very busy taking commissions, and the doodles that did make it onto the page were thumbnails of the images I was trying to work out.  

That night I had planned on filling in all the gaps in the page, but a party found me, literally found me, and dragged me all over Pittsburgh.  There was a generous amount of Tequila and the rest of the page was forgotten.  So sad.

035 - What the....

Pencil and Brush Pen on Sketchbook Paper

On Day 35 I discovered that Barnes and Noble has stuck a security tag right to my piece of paper!  How rude!  The rest was inspired by people and scenery of the dealer's room.

034 - The Double Tree Flies Away!

I stayed at the Double Tree hotel for the con.  I totally forgot to do my doodle until right before bed.  Since I didn't actually sleep the night before, the two days had kind of blended in together.

033 - The Lameness Begins

Ball Point Pen on Sketchbook paper

Last weekend I attended a convention.  It really threw a wrench in my Daily Doodle plans.  This image is the beginning of what I think is a low point of my work in this project.
