August 27, 2010

I'm out of town for a few days, so I've made a few days posts in advance. Back soon, probably with a few more drawings done on the plane.

Picked up a ballpoint pen for a change.

I went to a life drawing session at a local trendy coffee shop where the models wore 50's type lingerie and hairstyles. It was a nice change of pace, and accordingly I tried a different drawing style, more of a "continuous line" technique. Not sure about it yet, but I may try it a few more times.

August 11, 2010 - The Beauty of the Sketchbook . . .


I carry a small (4 x 6") sketchbook with me at all times. I tell students: as long as you have a sketchbook, you never have downtime. Waiting room at the dentist becomes sketch time. Sitting outside pre-school to pick up my son . . sketch time.

I did this quick sketch of Colin, our 17 month old while he was fixated on a TV show. The original is going to be a gift to my wife today, her birthday.
