Today… printers!
Sorry for my absence, I was off at an awesome design symposium in Utah.
Ballpoint with a touch of prismacolor blue.

IDSA Sketch Workshop
Today IDSA hosted a sketch workshop. One of our professors, Dean Bacalzo had the participants go through a few exercise sketches.
He talked about different drivers. Brand drivers, animal drivers, and other elements that could drive design concepts. One challenge that posed difficulties for many of the guys there was to design a power tool for women. Some important things mentioned were that handles needed to be smaller, and curvilinear and utilitarian designs would sell better to a female audience.
I tried designing a powertool handle “if HUMMER designed it.”
Hummer styled handle?
One sketch exercise we had to do was to draw on napkin. Because napkin tears very easily, only a small amount of pressure can be applied to the pen. He gave us 1 minute.
What is this? 
Here are two other sketches for today.
Quick mouse sketches.
For my plastics and finishings class, I'm making a display stand out of acrylic. I will be displaying a mouse, hence the ideation sketches.
