looking back

I was trying to find my 07-08 sketchbook, and I realised it was gone when I failed to pickup my portfolio after acceptance into the VCD program.  Also made me realise i don't sketch enough, I think I only had one sketchbook for that whole year.  Though by digging I found some sketches from back in the day when I drew the people with big eyes.  Can't post a lot of them because some of them are just so terrible to look at now I feel like burning the files.  You have to come to terms with what you've done though so I've kept all the files to look back and wince at every now and then.

Especially the coloured ones.  Some of them make me want to puke. 

However, that being said I miss some of the detail I put into those old sketches, it seems to me like my sketching is a lot more confined and tight than it used to be.   Gotta let loose and have some fun with detailing again.  I think it has to do with growing up perhaps, it almost feels harder to tap into my creativity pool as directly as I used to.  Maybe it's because there's so much more to worry and think about these days.

 
Oh and I also can't remember when I drew these, but the newest one is at least 2 years old i believe.
