By elise | Published: August 17, 2010

Mondoodle 14-06-2010

By elise | Published: June 14, 2010
I was writing today in a cafe and (everyone who has ever workshopped with me can laugh now) I did a new beginning to my novel. This is something I do (shuffles awkwardly) well, quite often. In fact I am known for multiple first chapters. It’s a talent. Someone’s got to have it. One day [...]

Anatomy of a Drawing 1

By elise | Published: January 21, 2010

Mondoodle 14-12-09

By elise | Published: December 14, 2009
I started this on the 11th December, when Pete and I were in the Paris Cat jazz club. A beautiful lady was singing, the lights were low and we were celebrating Pete’s birthday with cocktails and fine wine. A magical night. Most of this was drawn in the semi-dark and finished off today. Paris Cat, Melbourne [...]

Mondoodle 7-12-09

By elise | Published: December 7, 2009
So I found myself today on Lygon st in Carlton, having mistaken the date for another and arrived, all aflutter, for a meeting that wasn’t. Earlier I had lost a notebook with story ideas and pictures then found it at the gym. I had, in between these events, inspected my recycling twice, come to know [...]

Quick-draw – Solemn Rabbit

By elise | Published: October 31, 2009
Hello my loves. I have been playing… and you know how important I think play-time is… This was done on a Wacom Tablet and captured with CamStudio. I started with a reference photo of a hare and then made up the rest as I went along. I’m basically trying to do some pictures like I do in [...]
