Streetart Inspired


I've been meaning to draw more in my new sketchbook, but it's hard for me to find inspiration. So, as much as I enjoy the creative process my doodling is quite sporadic. However, a couple of my graffiti photographs sparked some ideas. I took this picture of a graffiti lady that looks rather like Frankenstein's bride. Some of the tagging around her face reminded me of sunglasses and I liked the idea of that juxtaposition and then threw in some of my typical patterns.

i know exactly what you mean about being stuck for inspiration! i have a summer art project from school to draw anything! it's such a broad project, it seems impossible! i will try and find some inspiration through graffit when i go to london tomorrow :) xx

That's really neat! You're so talented in many ways! I love the geometric shapes and then the cupcake-y swirls. Not a single spot out of line - if that makes sense. Thanks for sharing!

I love seeing your sketches, these remind me of doodling off inkblots! I remember a while back (like a year ago) you were saying you were deciding between law and art school. What made you pick law over art?
