12 APRIL: A different kind of bug

12/4/2020

 
Picture
If you visited this page earlier and saw an image of a cushion here instead of these drawings, it was because of a weird bug which confuses images from this blog with ones from my illustration and design blog at Binky McKee if they have the same title (i.e. the date posted). I must get more inventive with my titling! It's comforting to see there are other kinds of bugs than coronavirus around at the moment.
​
I couldn't believe it when I noticed I have been doing these for 15 weeks now ...
It sounds like such a long time, but it doesn't feel like it. I am up to no.92 now. When I look back to the very first week's drawings, however, the mental space since I began the first tentative steps of getting to know the shapes has expanded so much I hardly recognise the early processes. Some templates quickly became firm favourites, and I have used them over and over; and their meanings for me has changed in a way I can't explain.

This week I was delighted when I turned up an old brass template my brother made in his luthier days for cutting f-holes in violins to add to my collection; that got included in all six of this week's drawings and I am sure will continue to make an appearance in future work.

    Welcome to my work journal. I usually post here once a week on Sunday, but there are often 'bonus' posts in between of interesting things like growing carrot tops and avocado pits, the odd piece of work I do as Binky, and news items.
    ​Thanks for stopping by!

    As well as the work you see here, I illustrate under the name of Binky McKee (my mother's maiden name was McKee, Binky was every single one of my great grandmother's many cats!)
