Hi Everyone,
It’s been quite a while since I’ve posted, and I realised I hadn’t even posted the finished version of my panda. I sold my first print of it back in September as part of the Chalk Urban Art Festival in Sydney. I’ll post about some other work I did at the festival shortly. In the mean time, enjoy Office Pandamonium!

WIP. I’ve made a start on blocking out the background.
As i’ve gone along, this painting has evolved, and is beginning to become a little bit of a tribute to the movie “Office Space”. We’ll just have to see what elements of the movie, if any, might appear in it.

I realised that after a year at my last job, I hadn’t been drawing. Well, almost not at all. I think i remember an occasion during that year when i just had to draw something to tell myself i could still do it and the talent hadn’t begun to deteriorate. thankfully I’ve still got it… but i was rusty, and definately out of practice.

When i described my job to at least 3 friends, ones i hadn’t seen in a while, they were all surprised that it didn’t include any drawing. they all imagined me doing something where i was drawing. And to be completely honest with myself, so did I.

It seems the video games industry has had a remarkably draining effect on many other artists as well. At the surface it sounds like a dream job to geek out over, but I’m not sure if its so good when other people are more excited about your job than you are.

Anyway, I got inspired watching one of Bobby Chiu’s video casts, and made a start on some digital illustration challenges with my friend, Mr Marques, where we each do a drawing concept. The first one is “Panda with office supplies”.
It’s a work in progress - the office supply part is coming soon.
