I've been unable to go to the life drawing sessions for the last couple of weeks, so I did some drawing from poses online. They're not ideal (although the model does stay perfectly still) but I do like being able to do the very short poses. The hands below were done...
Missing last week's class meant I struggled a bit this week!
Clearing through my files today I found this sketch I did in Vancouver. It was a nice warm day so I went to the beach to doodle and draw. Today Edinburgh is cold and rainy and feels more like February than June, so I coloured my old sketch to remind me of warmer days...
More life drawing! All drawn in pastel.
I'm pleased with many of the sketches I did last night! Regular drawing helps so much, yet it's so easy to fall out of that all-important habit.
Some sketches from Tuesday. Pencil, pastel and pen.
I've been doing some more figure drawing from artists.pixelovely.com and thought these two stood out. I like the way this model uses her hair and the cloth she's wearing.
I've been working on a large freelance project which means I haven't had much to put on the blog! After missing last week, I managed to make it along to the life drawing class again.
