]]><![CDATA[Stockholm]]>Sat, 28 Sep 2013 20:59:59 GMThttp://www.wrightmonica.com/blog/stockholmThis is a commission drawing I did of a photograph taken in Stockholm, Sweden. I enjoyed drawing this. The mix of subject matter was fun for me. All of the structure and semi-exactness of the buildings demanded a lot of focus, so by the time I got to the organic line quality of the water, I was ready to be more free and intuitive about the line placement.
Plans to draw more landscape scenes in the works...

]]><![CDATA[good kid, mad city]]>Fri, 19 Apr 2013 00:51:14 GMThttp://www.wrightmonica.com/blog/good-kid-mad-cityHello! I decided I should once again, begin sharing drawings on here as I make them. I'm hesitant to commit to another one-a-day thing, because I have 5 paintings in progress right now. I like a challenge though, so we'll see how frequent the drawings turn out!
Today I did a drawing of Kendrick Lamar on a whim. I used a Micron pen and a few Prismacolor markers. Measures 8x10". Woo!
