Figure Drawing

We had several artists drive in from Big Spring for the figure drawing group tonight. That's wild! I continued this week with sketching with prisma colors on butcher paper. I'm really having fun with the colors. Although I tend to focus less on the figure when I'm doing that. I'm also letting my caricature instincts come out more this time around with the group. I was always trying to restrain myself to realistic figure drawing but that's just not natural for me. And I don't have the proper instruction around these parts to get to where I want to go with that. So this is the next best thing and its definitely been a lot of fun. Here is a link to one of the nights drawings.

Figure Drawing

Back into figure drawing. Its' been about 3 months since the Sketch Club figure drawing group has met. So its nice to be back. I missed last week but I hear it was good. This week we had Steve as our model, he was dressed in a kilt with bagpipes. He was fun to draw. I wanted to try something different so I drew on brown paper with prismacolor pencils. I was not expecting to use as many colors as I did but I really like the results. Definitely something to try again. If you're interested in coming out to the figure drawing group or modeling for us, we meet Wednesdays from 6:30 - 9:00 at the Garden and Arts center. You can contact Robert Garza at super1701b@gmail.com for more information. -Will

Dancers

This was my lunchtime sketch today. I was in a flamenco dancer kind of mood. Although the girl in the bottom corner ended up being a belly dancer. These were fun. I love dancers.

Monster sketches

Here's some quick little monsters for you. I got the idea to do these from one of Bobby Chiu's inspirational videos. The first couple ones are his little monsters and then I went on and tried a few of my own. These were a lot of fun and I'll prolly keep doing more of them. Each one took about 10 minutes in photoshop.

Here's the video...

ps. it's really bugging me how blogger doesn't reduce these images down to thumbnails anymore. I think I'm supposed to upgrade or something. I'm working on a new website anyways. You'll see this change in the next couple of weeks. Keep an eye out!
