Mr. Wu
by nwezner on 08 Nov, 2012 - 0 comments
A portrait of one of my awesome artist friends for his birthday:) (you can find some of his awesome work here-> http://www.etsy.com/shop/WuCaperStudio) I was experimenting with my dip pens. They’re a nice change from the uniformity of rapidographs from time to time. And then I went back with the watercolors:)

Saint Art Prayer Cards
by nwezner on 23 Jul, 2012 - 0 comments
I decided my prayer card photos on Etsy were a little subpar and since it is very sunny out (and also above 90 degrees:( I took advantage of the nice lighting to get some nicer photos: So far I’ve made St. Jude, Michael, Archangel, and St. Francis cards, but I’d like to make more. These […]
An old drawing
by nwezner on 23 Jul, 2012 - 0 comments
I was going through some old drawings and came across this- obviously unfinished. Judging from the subject matter, I’m pretty sure I started it around 2008ish. I don’t quite remember what my intentions were, but I think I’m going to add some nice soft pencil trees in the background and ink the houses in some […]
St. Gabriel Completed
by nwezner on 21 Jul, 2012 - 2 comments
St. Gabriel is all finished. Click below to see more of my process:) Here is what he looked like when I finished inking him: And here’s what he looked like pre-photoshop Overall I’m pretty happy with how this turned out. I got a little hung up after starting to add […]
New Saint Portrait
by nwezner on 30 Jun, 2012 - 0 comments
I just started working on another saint portrait. Michael seemed a little lonely being the only angel, so here is Gabriel, in progress, to keep him company. I’m really liking the direction the text for the title is going! On a side-note, I keep singing Blow Gabriel, Blow from Anything Goes while working on this:D […]
Slacking…
by nwezner on 25 Oct, 2011 - 0 comments
Here are all a whole bunch of images from the summer that I forgot to upload… This one was drawn in my sketch journal originally, but I redrew it, inked it and then touched it up in photoshop a little:) Thankfully I only had to weedwhip one day at work this past summer since I […]
Lexington

Yesterday I got a new set of Winsor and Newton Drawing inks from Hobby Lobby in Port Huron (Love that store!) and then Claire and I went on a small adventure, which I documented using my new inks:
More cartoons!
by nwezner on 03 Jul, 2011 - 0 comments
The top part of this page didn’t actually happen… Sometimes I draw my dreams really quick when I wake up. I’ve been keeping a dream journal since 2001. They’re very interesting to read back on sometimes. The bottom half is Jodi’s hand being eaten by a printer though (she would say that didn’t really happen […]
Cartoon Journal
by nwezner on 16 Jun, 2011 - 0 comments
A few more entries from my cartoon journal: This is from the day that someone who did not know how to handle their motorhome almost tipped themselves over in the ditch by the dump station… Justin and I spray painted arrows onto the road in the wagon wheel. It was almost 90 out and sweat […]
Hill House process and completion!
by nwezner on 19 May, 2011 - 0 comments
This one was taken via cell phone, so I apologize for the bad quality… but I decided to put in another hill in the background and experimented with layering pencil over ink, which I kind of like. The ink adds the structure and the pencil softens it up a little. And here is the finished […]
more cartoons
by nwezner on 09 May, 2011 - 0 comments
I went to Emily’s house and played with her baby goats:) The are adorable and bouncy and only tried to eat my sweatshirt once… Claire and I went to the Cranbrook Thesis show. It was hard to tell which art was supposed to be interactive and which wasn’t. We really wanted to sit on this […]
Cartoons
When I write letters to Joe in the army, I sometimes illustrate them:) Here are a couple of my cartoons:(I’ve been writing on neon colored paper lately… sorry for the color haha.) I found this amazing youtube channel -> http://www.youtube.com/user/LDsongscreen#g/p that has tons of old folk songs on it and the lyrics scroll down the […]
more process
by nwezner on 21 Apr, 2011 - 0 comments
Here is a little more done on my house picture. I’m still debating whether to put more hills or water in the background. I’m pretty sure there will be dark moody clouds eventually. And I’m going to soften the grass up with layers of pencil. I like the contrast between the soft pencil and the […]
Cemetery Sketches and Process
by nwezner on 17 Apr, 2011 - 0 comments
More from Oaklawn Cemetery in Algonac. I biked there thinking I would be smart and go sketch before the mosquitoes start coming out. It’s very shady there, so they’re really horrible in the summer… Instead i got attacked by teeny tiny flying things:( So I didn’t stay super long… This is a drawing I’m starting […]
Autorama and Motor City casino
by nwezner on 04 Mar, 2011 - 0 comments
I still have a lot more cars, but I’m not quite done touching them up yet… Joe and I went to the casino first, so while he was playing roulette, I sketched people. Casinos are awesome places to sketch people because everyone is so intent on their games no one notices (however, when they do […]
Red Wings game
by nwezner on 15 Feb, 2011 - 0 comments
I went to my first game last weekend and took my sketchbook in case I got bored. Apparently it is sacrilegious to get bored at a hockey game though, but I sketched a few people anyways during halftime (Claire made fun of me when I called it half time…). Here is Joe, me and my […]
Black Friday Sketches
by nwezner on 27 Nov, 2010 - 0 comments
Sketching is a nice way to pass the time while waiting in lines for hours… Plus people are so tired that they hold very still for long periods of time:) (Click on the pictures to make them bigger!) We got kind of a late start this year- Target at 6am This is Best Buy around […]
