I’m slowing down these days... it’s winter, it’s in between Christmas and New Year’s, I’m eating hot soup and seeing friends.. reading books and hanging out at the park with the kids.. my mind if on a break too... building up all the juices for a new year of art and discovery!

Riding on the highway...tut tut tut...

Riding on the highway...tut tut tut...
Just a quick one.. I ride my bike to work these days, and, even in LA it's gets a little cool.. it's just such a great feeling to ride down fairly empty streets with cold wind on my cheeks and my nose and being able to breathe so deeply because the air is so cold!
Just wanted to capture that!!

Pops

For you, my daughter We fight, we love, we argue, we hugs , we play, we learn. Sometimes I get upset at you and sometimes you don’t want to talk to me. Most of the times I want to pick you up and hug you, but I can’t always do it. ALWAYS, I love you. ALWAYS. Even if I’m upset, even if I’m not here and I’ll always do my best for you. I hope when you are a grown up you can see this and remember how it was. I love you, every day. Pop. #pascalcampion #noteasytobeaparent

Freeze Frame

Freeze Frame
#pascalcampion
Sometimes, I just wish I could freeze one frame of a moment in live in it for a little bit. Sometime it’s family time, sometimes it’s doing a good drawing or just a reflection in a window.. all those “freeze frames” happen everywhere, all the time. I’m always on the lookout for them.

Dinos in the city.

Dinos in the city.
This is an OLLLLLD one( at least five or sixe years old!)
It just popped up on my feed and I was thinking how much my style has changes. Not as much the storytelling, although my themes are slightly different now, but just the look of the image..it’s changed so much!

Winter crush

Winter crush
#pascalcampion
Simple one.. I like simple..forces you to look at the basics like storytelling, composition, color, space, mood.
It’s not flashy, but, I tend to think of drawing basics as the pasta that is served with the spaghetti sauce. If you JUST have the pasta( basics) without the sauce, it’s still a nutritious meal.. the sauce makes it more appealing... but if you were to have JUST the sauce without the pasta, you wouldn’t want to eat that for very long. 
I know it’s kind of a weird analogy, but It works for me.. makes me work on the basics all the time.

Bay Area beaches in winter.. it’s like magic.

LA sketch of a sketch of a sketch

LA sketch  of a sketch of a sketch
This is more a sketch of a sketch of a sketch..
Saw this amazing light this morning and didn’t want to forget so I did a quick “sketch of a sketch of a sketch” to remember what I saw.
I’m posting this because someone asked me how I start my sketches.
I start them a thousand ways, but one thing I tend to do when I start is that I am unafraid of doing unpretty drawings! The reason I point this out is because so often I’ll see a portfolio for review, or a younger artist who just wants to do pretty drawings. if you only do these pretty/correct/awesome looking drawings, you are stopping yourself from exploring and discovering the world around you.
I don’t think I know a single artist who knows how to draw EVERYTHING from the get go. You always have to do some thinking, some searching...and that means exploring areas you don’t know and can’t draw properly.

Anyhow.. to make a long story short...allow yourself to not know sometimes.. it makes discovering so much funner.
