Lou Romano painting

Lou Romano (The Incredibles, Powerpuff Girls) recently had his own personal drawing jam where he made dozens of sketches and then painted them digitally. He writes on his blog, “These drawings were done one right after another without any plan in mind. Then they were scanned and painted digitally in the order in which they were drawn. The goal for me was to get ideas out of my head, on to paper and into color as fluidly and as quickly as possible.”

The results are all posted here.

    I saw these too! They really flow together like an uninterrupted stream of consciousness. Inspiring in so many ways.

    OMG, hilarious! This is a classic drawing exercise…grab a ream of paper, spend all day, fill it up with drawings. But, there’s a funny catch to it. There is ONE THING that everyone who tries this exercise ALWAYS draws. Always. Can you guess what that ONE THING is?

    Thanks, Amid for the mention of this! I haven’t been checking up on Lou’s blog for a while. These are great!

  • COMMENT OF THE MOMENT

    "I was one of the writers on the show. Very odd experience. For starters, there was no head writer. They just hired 8 writers, threw them into a conference room and told them to work out what the show was going to be amongst themselves. And then we were asked to give each other suggestions about our scripts which nobody had to follow and most didn’t..."
