On Sunday, instead of the regular nude model, we had a Flamenco dancer! It was great, she would dance for a few minutes, then stop and pose in the middle of her dance. Poses start at 2 minutes, then 3 and 5 minutes
A 2 minute pose, a few 3 minute poses, and a 10ish minute pose of Chieh. Also a 5 minute pose of Yui.
A two hour pose of Chieh from a Sunday morning session a couple weeks ago.
Here's a 5 minute pose from the last gesture drawing session for the summer (until September) at my school. We decided to have some fun and do a costumed session where our model, Guy, dressed up as a variety of characters, which included Spock! This pose turned out the best. Phasers were set to stun for the safety of the artists.
A page of 1 minute poses and a 5 minute pose of Christine.
Finally a drawing that turned out okay! I really enjoyed drawing this model, she had very expressive poses, I only wish I could have captured her better. 5 minute pose
Seems like I haven't updated in a very long time! School has been pretty busy this semester. We're studying the head and neck in life drawing at the moment, so here are a couple of portrait drawings from the last week. 10 minute poses + a bunch of extra time during the breaks to add/refine.
Late last year I started going to long pose sessions in addition to gestures, where I never drew beyond 15 minute poses. A friend had stressed the importance of doing both long and short pose to push your skills, so I went to some long pose sessions whenever I had time between assignments. After 5 sessions I did a long pose that I actually liked a bit. Ed - 2 hours
Some 5 minute poses of Ed, Fran and Joel.
These are from Wednesday night, got to draw Steve again! He's a great model, holds some awesome poses. 2, 3, and 5 minute drawings.
Yikes, I haven't posted any drawings in a while! I'm back at school now after a short break, should be a busy semester. In other news, I have over 100 followers now! That's awesome, I'm glad you folks all like looking at my art things. So here's some 1, 2, 3, and 5 minute poses of 4 different models.
1 minute gestures of Andrew, Trevor and Lily.
Some sketches of fellow artists from a few life drawing sessions.
Some 1 minute, 3 minute and 5 minute poses from a few different models. Getting lots of practice drawing women these days.
one 1 minute gesture and two 2 minute gestures of Derek. He brought a surf board in to pose on, made for some unique poses.
3 minute gestures of Anastasia and Trev
I wanted to avoid shadow and tone on this one and just go for line. 5 min pose
