traditional vs. modern

well those photos should sum up what i want to do right now. eat macaroons and take a nap. i seriously can't wait for the weekend!! it's just gotten to a point where weekdays are "responsibility days" and weekends are just for you and you alone. i guess that's just how the whole routine goes..

i've also realized something. i used to do a lot of illustrations on the computer but for some reason, it has just naturally changed to my good old notebook. i think i might be losing my "digital illustration" skills so i am slowly getting back on it again.. therefore, expect more computerized graphics [i.e. that typography up there] to come.

which technique do you think is better? using traditional ways to illustrate, as in with pen and paper or.. the modern way? with a computer and mouse? hmm.

ps. those are my new bed sheets. and i am back on using my moleskine cahier again! it turns out, i was using the wrong side of the paper, the rough side.. which was why i hated it so much. but it is all good now.

Hi love! Personally I really like using the 'traditional' methods of illustrating- partially because I have no idea what I am doing when it comes to digital or computer illustrating, and partially because I really like getting away from my computer/technology and having something come straight out of my heart or soul and through a pen onto paper.

Anyway, I hope you are well, and that all of your arty-ness is being fully expressed, any way you want it to be!

* angela, i think what you said at the end is very true. it doesn't really matter which way you do it, just as long as you express it out. thanks!

* alice, pen and paper seems to be more convenient for me these days =)
