Im Alive!

Hey everyone! I am so sorry about the lack of posts! This semester has been pretty demanding since I am currently attending school full time! 

So let me fill you guys in on what's new with me. I am taking 4 classes this semester: Advanced Figure Drawing, Ceramics, Conceptual Illustration and Rendering the Human Head. So far I have been keeping up with everything pretty well! I am estimated to graduate in about a year! Only two more semesters before I am out on my own. I am nervous but also excited for the future.

Nothing else is really new. I am going to try and get back in the habit of updating this every week! Until next time, enjoy these drawings I've done over the last few months.

cheers,

Ashley Fairbourne

INKTOBER 2014!

Wow! October really flew by! I decided that since I was so busy, it would be best for me to just do a big post with all my Inktober drawings in it! I will give you guys some updates in my next post.

So this year for Inktober, I decided to give myself a theme so that I wouldn't get bored. It turned into a story and somehow turned into a 3D project too. I had a lot of fun with it, but it sure was a lot more work than the standard Inktober drawings. I am thinking I will compile all of them into a book that I can sell a little before Halloween next year!

I hope you guys enjoy!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Cheers,

NEW PRINTS IN MY SOCIETY6 STORE!

I am so pooped! Living is definitely exhausting. But I guess you have to decompose one day at a time. GUYS! It's almost INKtober! I can't wait. I am still trying to decide on a theme to make into a possible book for you all. I think I have a basic idea of what I am going to end up doing.

Anyways, don't think I haven't noticed my absence, cos I totally have. And I am sorry. But I have some fun illustrations to show you guys. I seriously can't wait for Halloween! Augh!

 

 

Lizards love eyeballs...

 

This is a quick cartoon of me expressing my deep love for autumn time and pumpkin flavored things.

 

Hermione Granger for Sketch Dailies prompt the other day. I used to want to be her. I still kind of do. How could I not?

 

Just your standard pug in a top hat.

Take care this week, guys. xoxo

SOCIETY6 STORE IS OPEN!

Hey guys! Guess what? My Society6 store is open and ready for action! 

CLICK ME!

You can purchase prints, shirts, phone cases and more there! I only have a few things up right now, but I will be adding more to the stop very soon! If you have any suggestions or things you would like to see added, please let me know! I would love to hear from you.

In other news, I have just been drawing stuff for school. I don't really have much school work to show you guys yet, but I do have a quick 10 minute sketch I did with ink of a portrait of a girl. I also went out to eat at a sandwich shop that lets you draw on the sandwich wrapper and hang it up in the store. It was so much fun!

 

Hope you all have a wonderful day!

cheers,

SKOOL

Well, hey! 

School started. Woohoo. So now ill be busier than ever... and hopefully will have some cool projects to show you guys. So far I like my classes a lot. But I guess we will have to see if that changes over time. 

 

I finished a commissioned portrait I did for my friend. He wanted me to mimic the same style I did for my self portrait a little bit ago. I liked the way it turned out.

 

This was a silly little doodle I did of one of my new professors. He was really young, so this doesn't make a whole lot of sense. The whole reasoning behind it is just that there was a skeleton standing next to him and I wanted to draw him as a skeleton. (You know I love Halloween.)

 

Finally, this was done in my sculpture class. He was just having us try and get the basic shape of a human skull without any details added and this is what I ended up with by the end of the school day. If you know me, then you know that I have never really had any luck with sculpture, but this time around, it was really fun! I can't wait to work on my class project! 

Cheers,
