Thread: Robot Butler's Dream Sketches

I'm getting geared up for a productive fall and winter season, going through some old sketchbooks and dream journals. I decided not to be selfish and lazy. I've scanned a few pages in to share, old and new. I will post them over the next couple weeks. Hopefully this will get my lazy ass motivated to keep producing through the long, cold California winter to come.

In no particular order, and with lots more to come:

Here are some mini sketches I used to do on the back of those free postcards they would give away around town and at record shops. Might as well take advantage of the waste, right? I had around 200 of these stolen a while back, but I still have tons of them. Sorry for the crappy quality of the scans. I hastily photographed these a while back before organizing them into a book.

A couple more pages from my old dream sketchbooks:





I also do tons of these mini finger-paintings with oilbars. Again, on the back of those mini 3x5 postcards.

Wow, these are fantastic! I'd love to see more (I especially like the mini oil paintings).

Amazing, your dreams seem abstract.

I don't have crazy things like these in my dreams, they are normally places that I have been just changed a little.

I envy these crazy things..

Following in Robot_Butler's footsteps, I thought a dream sketch journal was a good idea for a budding artist.
I guess this means I need to get my dream recall up to scratch first

Err... btw, great work in your thread

wow, ur an awesome artist! i haven't read through all the posts, but everything i've seen is fantastic!

Thanks for the support, guys. I guess this means I need to post more work. I'm meeting with some new local artists this Sunday. Hopefully there will be some good energy to help get me inspired to do some new work. I feel like I'm cheating when I post only old stuff

God, these look EXACTLY like the kind of drawings a friend of mine does. Same style, in fact, I thought he was you when I saw these.

Your friend sounds like he must be a talented guy

im so jealous of your drawing/painting skills, its just amazing.

Thanks, Slash I still need a lot more practice before you can be jealous

I just peeked in here and I think it's really neat that you have this thread up! Some of your drawings are just amazing. It makes me want to paint

if you were any better than you are now, id shoot myself i would be that jealous. (im kidding on, im not suicidal, just to make that clear) but trust me, im extremely jealous.

i prefer to look at your work more than anyone elses work, im not talking about on this site, im talking about the whole world and history of art. im not joking.

You suck... JUST KIDDING. There is to much talent in your art you need to calm down.

Thanks. I need to update this with some new stuff. I'll dig around this weekend.

I love your digi-paintings! I think I like your clouds in the Hawaiian painting the best.

Just wanted to say awesome work. I used to love drawing as a kid and love to do so from time to time. I've been thinking about starting my own thread and drawing some pic, getting motivation in the process, but, I can't compare to this. Maybe it was a bad idea

Gosh these are beautiful! I love sketching, your dreams are inspiring!

Your stuff is amazing!

BUMP. FOR. JUSTICE!

Your work is absolutely stunning!

You have some inspirational artistic skills robot. Your works seem to invoke a real sense of imagery (i don't think thats the right word) within me. Love it!

Wow, your art is amazing! This is very inspiring for lucid dreaming. Please keep making wonderful works of art!

You need to update this RB,,
