Well, it’s been a while since I’ve posted any of my sketching that I try to do regularly. These pieces are not works of art, but practice – I attend a life drawing session once a week to get practice in. It’s certainly starting to come together now.
Here are a few of my latest sketches.
Okay, I’m sorry. It’s been ages since I’ve had an update. Leave me alone, I’ve been busy. : p
Here are a bunch of pieces that I’ve done lately…
It’s been a week or so, but here are some drawings from my last session at life drawing… (sorry for the blurry photos)
It’s Tuesday, update day. Did okay at drawing last night and got a little more creative, but tried to do more of the longer poses. I wasn’t really happy with the model (no offense if you’re reading this!) but I tried my best to get some interesting stuff done. I also got a little creative and tried to push my style a little bit. Anyway, here’s the result from last night.
It’s Tuesday, but it’s been a while. I’ve been sick and busy and so on, but here’s what I’ve been doing over the last couple of weeks…
The next two are of an awesome lady tattooing at the Sydney Tattoo and Body Art Expo (Gemma Pallat). Two slightly different takes, and both would have been better if people hadn’t been standing in the way… but that happens at an expo…
The next couple of drawings is me trying to focus on faces. I’m getting happier with how bodies are coming along and enjoying the proportion, but I need to do a lot more work on faces. Here is some practice…
The next couple are back to bodies from drawing last night…
And now I think this may be one of, if not the, best drawings I have ever done. It’s a slightly different style, but sometimes it’s nice to move out of your comfort zone.
Wow, it seems like forever since I’ve posted drawing. Probably because it has been a long time. Unfortunately, I don’t have anything astoundingly awesome to make up for it. I have been drawing, but been too busy to take crappy photos and post them here. I’ll try to be more vigilant in future.
Anyway, a collection of recent drawings…
I went to drawing last night, but got there late since I had to stay back at work for a bit. The good thing was that I got straight into the longer poses, but the bad thing was I got less of them. Still, I was pretty happy how they turned out. For some reason I was channeling a kinda of 40’s vibe. I think it had something to do with the model wearing her hair back and having a faux fur draped around her shoulders.
Just a quick update as I have a lot to blog about at the moment. These are a few of the drawings I did at life drawing last night. I’m starting to get a bit proud because I’m finally getting to the point where it’s coming more naturally now and I can worry less about the correctness and a bit more on the artistic side of things. I’m really happy where things are at the moment and really looking forward to how this is going to look as I get better. 🙂
So, I want to start doing some Roller Derby drawings, but it’s a little difficult because I don’t do it myself and therefore not really sure how everything fits together in the terms of safety gear and skates. I’ve started doing a few drawings from photos to try to get the proportions right but it’s going to take a bit of practice. It would probably be better to draw from real life, but they move so damn fast!!
Anyway, here’s a couple of done that the awesome Captain Ratz was nice enough to unknowingly pose for (these are from action shots of her in photos). The last one was of Feisty Cuffs – a present for her birthday. 🙂
