I did the sketch while brett, beth and myself watched the daily show. I decided to mess around with coloring it in photoshop.

I have been messing around as much as I can with drawing. Someday I really plan on taking this fine art stuff serious. The drawing of the girl is a friend of mine from Stockholm who was gracious enough to let me draw her.

I just got back from Sweden. This family took us out on their private lake fishing. I gave this to them before we left for the states.

6 drawings at 20 mins a piece = animation! I think I am going to continue to explore this idea. So this was all done live and on the spot. Pretty crappy photography though.

I have finally started painting again. This was about a 20 mins worth of work. It is difficult and fun trying to paint so quickly. I am pleased with the result.

Line Quality?

2008-02-13T23:41:00.000-08:00

So I have really been trying to push and develop various types of marks. These are a couple of the more successful drawings. I make a lot of bad drawings these days but it's always fresh and new whenever I draw. I usually don't spend more than 90 minutes a drawing.

I thought I would try for messing with more "style" on this one. The model had an interesting face and cool tattoos. She was difficult to draw, I think because of my angle and her proportions.

The top drawing was a 25 min pose. The others were 2 and 5 minute poses. Nu pastel on 18x 24. There were a couple other drawings but I can only post 5 images at a time. Definitely a prolific morning.

SAT Figure Drawing

I have been working with nu-pastel lately. Last weeks attempt went okay but I thought the paper I was working with was too coarse. I bought some smoother paper and I think that has helped with my control of the pastel. I'm still not where I want to be but I am making some progress.
