This is my personal sketchbook that I'm currently working in. I'm trying to develop my own style to illustrate in. I'm normally really fussy when it comes to sketchbooks, but I'm forcing myself not to rip out a page if there is something on there that I don't like. I'm also trying to get into the habit of using one media form and then going back in a few weeks and adding to that with another mediaform.
I really like using words with my illustrations, as you can see. My favourite type of text to use is the block one that looks really good cut out. I've used it on four pages. I also like writing things that are personal and that have come out of my head from a situation I've been in or am in. That may be an incredibly selfish thing, but I believe what I've gone through or am going through, many other people have too and they can relate to my work and find comfort in that.
Out of all these pages the one with the squirrel on the telephone asking "Why do you always do this to me?" is my favourite. I'm going to really look forward to adding another media form to these pages such as oil paints or watercolours, I might after I am satisfied with what I can do by hand scan a page or two in and edit then image on photoshop.
