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?

Ye old banner

I don't really make them as banners, but that is what they are.

The old one was just a stand-in, quickly picked out from a random sketch. I figured everyone are probably heartbroken and miss the old banner very much. So here is the original unfinished study I used for it.

It's my plant, Kate, she stands next to the monitor, was fitting to paint a study of it :] Ficus Ginseng if I am correct, some sort of a bonzai tree.

A bit late to finish it now, lacks leaves in winter and has gotten somewhat taller. I'm a slow worker sometimes :]
