Character Sketchbook 144
July 31, 2012

Hi Friends. Sorry for you the absence. As i mentioned in my last post, i've been getting ready for The Mural project for Tiffany and Company. Been working 13-16 hours per day for the last 7 days, just to finish it in time. I just finished the mural design last night. I'm pretty exhausted, but so happy with how it turned out. i can't wait for you all to see it, and i can't wait to get working on it in New York. David, my sister Mandi, and I are flying out this Saturday. I'm going to be painting in Soho next Monday through Wednesday (August 6-8). I will let you know the times i'm painting soon :)
The picture today is Character Sketchbook 144 of Gemma Ward. I drew this 3 years ago. i thought it would be a fun drawing to post for today. Are any of you watching the Olympics? What's your favorite sport to watch so far?

Probably the men's gymnastics are my favorite so far. Just seeing how much endurance it takes to accomplish some of their routines is absolutely amazing. I also like all the swimming events. The races are just so close everytime between competitors that I find myself almost holding my breath right before they finish.
And by the way, is your Tiffany project in NY going to be filmed at all so we can watch the event as well?
absolutely love this drawing. brilliant. love how dynamic and super fashion it is
