Quick still life contour line drawing

Did a bunch of my daily illustration tonight but I wanted to do a quick observational sketch. Pulled this picture of a wrench off line and drew it quick before calling it a night.

End of my Digital Darkroom Class

It is the end of the semester and I wanted to share what I did in my Digital Darkroom class. I am by no means a photographer but this class was pretty fun and gave me a chance to learn Adobe Lightroom. I would have been able to get some better pictures if I had a better camera and not such a hectic schedule but these are what I could come up with, with what I have. Hope you enjoy it :-)

Another Repeat Pattern Swatch

I've been pretty busy lately and haven't had much time to do much of anything extra. For awhile now I have really been wanting to make another repeat pattern swatch in illustrator. I didn't know what kinda pattern I'd make though. But while in my tired and delirious state of mind tonight my new child was babbling and making faces at me and an idea for a new repeat pattern came to me. So I decided I would make this design before going to bed. Hope you like it.

A repeat pattern swatch is basically a pattern that repeats seamlessly with itself and can be used as a fill color.  They are really fun to make. Ill probably make a bunch more in the future. 

My first repeat pattern I posted earlier this year.
