Digging through my drawings from last year, I uncovered some from a year ago that I never posted. So here they are!

Life Drawing, 31st December
I made it along to some of the epic eight-hour life drawing marathon organised by Deryck Henley on New Year's Eve. It was great to do some drawing from (digital) life - it had been a few months, and I was very rusty. These poses were modelled by Anna and Mariano.
Life Drawing, 14th July
A couple of sketches of Naomi, from a session last month. I've just started a new job with Wild Child on a children's television series. Hopefully I'll be able to show what I'm working on sometime next year!
Character Sketching – Ballerina
Beatrix held some tricky-to-draw ballet poses last Friday for CTN's On Model class.

Life Drawing, 12th May
Vilidian modelled at this week's life drawing session. Unfortunately I'd run out of paper (more is on the way) but I drew in Photoshop instead. I tried to resist using 'Undo' but didn't always succeed ... It was nice having some close-up poses near to the camera.
Character Sketching – Maleficent
I've admired artists who turned their life drawing sketches into characters for years, but though I've used my drawings as inspiration for characters I've never, until now, drawn a model and drawn a character at the same time. It's tough. But it's fun! With so much...
