Nat and her dog Lapa were wonderful models at last week's life drawing session. I drew Lapa quite a lot, as you can see below ... That's me caught up!
Sketching
Life Drawing with Cello, 30th October
Some life drawing sketches of Sarah with her cello. I struggled a bit with the conte pastel, so I abandoned it for the pencil. The cello was difficult to draw! I've got one more week to catch up on which I'll post tomorrow.
Life Drawing, 16th October
Some very late sketches, modelled by Susan. I have two more weeks of drawing to post which I'll upload over the next two days.
Inktober 2018 #23 – Erle
Erle is Kinsey's husband. In writing the script his character has been developed beyond his role in the short story. I like the exploration of their relationship. And that's it for Inktober!
Inktober 2018 #22 – Kinsey
For the penultimate character I've drawn Kinsey, who I've illustrated before but wanted to explore more. I'm writing a script of Kinsey's Sword and am beginning to think more about what her character will look like.
Inktober 2018 #21 – Hermux
Hermux Tantamoq is a watchmaker who is pulled into all sorts of adventures in Michael Hoeye's books. My drawing is from Hermux in Time Stops for No Mouse, the first in the series, but my favourite is The Sands of Time.
Inktober 2018 #19 & #20 – Trennte & Jeffrey
A double update! Both characters are from The Princess of Nowhere, the first novel I ever finished writing. Trennte is the manservant of Prince Jespar, and is the prince's friend and mentor. Jeffrey is a tie. For some reason I cut Jeffrey out of the later drafts,...
Inktober 2018 #18 – Finn
Finn is a half-Indian, half-English boy who Maia meets and befriends. Unfortunately I missed yesterday - I'm away from home at the moment, and yesterday proved too busy! I may do a double update tomorrow to catch up.
Inktober 2018 #17 – Maia
Maia is an orphan, sent out to Brazil to distant relatives in the care of Miss Minton.
