Meeting Notes! ...and you will like it.

A quick post on a busy day. For someone who hates to juggle work, I am doing a lot of juggling right now. Mind you, I am not complaining, that is the last thing I want to do. Things should smooth out soon if everything goes to plan. In the mean time, I have for you today some meeting note monsters to take the weight off my shoulders in regards to the blog at least. ENJOY!

As always, before you pass judgment, this is how I take notes in meetings and you should not think I am not paying attention. Active hands means active brain... or something... anyway, on with the monsters...

Thankfully the one that got away...

Bound for Illuxcon 4 & Meeting Notes

On my way to Illuxcon 4 today in Altoona, PA. I have a very early flight to kick things off and will arrive in Altoona early this afternoon. This will be my third visit to Altoona and Illuxcon and I am really looking forward to it. I hope to see a lot of friends, amazing art, and hopefully learn a thing or two. I will as always try my best to post each day recapping all of my misadventures. Because of this crazy day o travel that I have ahead of me, some meeting notes have stopped by to once again save the day.

Meeting Notes on the run...

I am post from my super secret birthday location today. Making this quick and dirty since there is much to do and little time to do it. To make this happen some more meeting notes showed up to help out on the blog again. RAWR!

If there is one thing my doodle monsters know how to do it would be exhaling little puffs of cartoon smoke from their snoots.

Looks like I stopped on this one just in time... disaster averted.

I wonder how this one would get food to its mouth... I think it is wondering the same thing. Luckily or it the tusks are seasonal and he bulked up ahead of time and will not need to eat during tusking season.

Yes, Virginia, there are meeting notes

Just a quick post today since there is far to much wackiness to deal with. From the back pocket I have some more meeting notes. When in doubt grab those little monsters on little sheets of yellow paper.

Even More Meeting Notes

A late blog post on a holiday for most in the United States. Laying low and getting some rest and HOPEFULLY a lot of work done. I still wanted to make sure I got by the blog all the same. Since it is a low key day I have some more meeting notes that I have been compiling over the last several months.

More Meeting Notes

My week began with a bang and ended with a thud. I guess I should count myself lucky and be grateful for that bang, but that is another conversation all together. With this in mind as well as several other factors I am keeping a low profile today and have for you some new meeting notes. I have been in a lot of meetings lately.

Self promotion and meeting notes

A few weeks ago I told you about about.me and the interesting potential it offered to act as a hub for all your links on the web. A one stop home page to let people know where to find you on the web. Since it is still in beta it is having a gradual roll out so you have to sign up and reserve your name and wait for an invite to create your page. My invite finally showed up this week and I am pleased to say my page if up and working. about.me/christopherburdett is now live and feel free to stop by and see all my exciting links!

I also have some notes from a recent meeting to share. Before you pass judgment, this is how I take notes in meetings and you should not think I am not paying attention. Active hands active brain... or something... anyway, one with the monsters...

Meeting notes (round 2)

I have been playing around with my new Pentel Pocket Brush Pen lately. Not surprisingly the pen seems to have found itself in my hand as I went to a recent meeting and so allowed my to produce the following pages of notes. Enjoy!

Which side is up?

I must be slipping... there seems to
be some actual notes on the top left...

Meeting notes

I have never been a big fan of meetings, but they are a necessary evil... or so I am told. To make it through them I doodle. Some times the doodles get out of hand. Here is a recent one...

I am a huge fan of doodles and simply drawing for the pleasure of making marks on the page. Far too often I feel compelled to create a finished piece, to complete a goal, to make a deadline.

This is also how I made it through most of my art history classes back in school. Please do not get me wrong... I enjoyed every class and learned about the amazing and complex history of the arts. I just seem to be able to retain what I hear better when I doodle compared to when I am writing notes. The practice continues now while I am in meetings and you will see more of these doodles here.
