Drink and Draw online II

Chimera theme! Say hello to goatypillar!

This is my contribution :)

You can find videos of us drawing and talking here at our blog. We'll be posting the final images from our rambly sessions there too :D Check it out.

Straight to the video here http://youtu.be/OUAh73zmLLI

It looked like the top one when the streaming was over. Finished it up today :] 

Woodcut'n printing

Long image, in blog format, for your blog reading pleasure!
A photo of my first two woodcut prints which i did in the grafic printing introduction class :3 I am amazed there was such a class availible for us at the less practical end of academia, and very pleased. Next stop is etching! Never tried that one before. Dipping things in acid is strangely aluring.

I'll try to choose a less foresty(<3) theme for the next stuff.

Cheers!

Party of witches

Finally finished this! Started out as a landscape months ago, bacame a gathering for a witch ritual. Thinking of the Bene Gesserit as allways :]

Might fix their faces up a bit some day.

Cheeers!

Last intense session

Last ones! The gray one is 40 min session and the yellowish one is maybe 3 hours? I didn't keep track...

When I concentrate while playing games, solving problems or drawing I don't blink. I forgot that while desperately trying to put in all the proportions correctly. Strained my eye! It hurts looking to the sides. I feel silly.

Sorry for the even more crappy snapshots than regular. The paper this time is the same, the photos look different cause i tried to do some quick balance fixes in PS.

I fell into the trap of long session=stiff figure :( Still, I feel I learned a lot this week

I hope I'll get to do some more life drawing soon. I feel a strong need for some hardcore classical training :B Maybe some boring still life again?

MOAR life model drawing

Some of the sketches from todays session. Sort of strange, I feel a lot of progress. And I can see actual progress in the 5 second sketches. Third try(the ones in this post) has far more marks/detail compared to the first two. Feels strange because I rarely feel this sort of improvement.

Some of these done with trusty old brush pen, then I swiched to charcoal. I never use charcoal, so don't be too hard on me :]

These are 5 second, 6 minute and 12 minute sketches(all on a3 format paper). The last one(yellowish one) is done in 40 minutes (on a2 format). I still kind of suck at drawing large. Somehow painting large is easier to me while drawing is harder.

More to come on friday, after the last session! :]

Maybe something in colour tomorow?

Life drawing nudes

Some of the work from the last two days. Training figurative drawing tickles my brain in a lovely way. Wouldn't mind improving my skillz.

I do love life model drawing, so glad I have the opportunity atm. More to come this week!
