We will be on break for Thanksgiving, so drawing will recommence next Monday. Here’s what I did today for good measure.
I'm down to 30 minutes on this one. There's problems with it, but I cut my time in half, so I'll take what I can get.
This took a couple hours. I have to work at a larger scale from now on. Probably give this one away.
I'm supposed to only do 20 minute drawings until I'm better at proportions, but I decided to do an hour one on Friday to see what I could accomplish. Feels like I'm taking one step forward and two steps back.
I'm copying busts out of a book because my heads are so bad in the life room. This one turned out OK, next week's should be better.
I lucked out by being new, because now I don’t have to do a personal project and get to draw with impunity. Next week I start drawing an X-Wing fighting an origami crane. I’m slightly terrified but it will probably be fun. In the meantime I’m practicing copying other people’s block-ins because I’m really bad at them.
It took 2 hours for me to do this, turns out it should never take longer than 40 minutes =P. I have a long way to go.
The head is still too small, but I'm getting better at that. This model kept turning during the breaks, kept messing up my perspective...
I don't remember how long this one took. Probably longer.
This is the last of the simple still lifes. Never did get very good at them.
We didn’t have a model last week, so no nudie drawings this post, and if today’s work is any indication there might not be any next time either. Instead of figure drawing, we took Wednesday to take a field trip to the Seattle Art Museum.
We had to take a master drawing a trace the skeleton over it.
