lifedrawing retention - 01.24.09

Digital sketch of what I could recall from lifedrawing this morning.
2 figure studies + 1 portrait + a few hand studies = retention!

brushy fun

Messin' around with a brush set Joshua The James hooked me up with. Thanks Josh!

Enter : the china marker!

Portrait by Popov!

Fellow concept grunt and Internet pen pal Sergey Popov (Popov-SM) has graced me with a rather unexpected (but nonetheless awesome) portrait! Had to share/gloat...


I'm adding Mr. Popov to the roster of other talented weirdos who have fed my ego by drawing me : Isaac Owens, Nick Southam and David Levy. (Not nearly enough ladies on that list...hrm...)

2008 was a fierce uphill battle! Many important lessons learned, but loads more to shoot for in '09. Much of it will boil down to keener observation, clarity of storytelling and a greater deal of patience/foregiveness, not to mention ongoing independant research and kind crits from peers!

Last's night's drawing. Found success in using my pencil to check angles, but am still phoning in my hands, feet, and messing up head size and other proportions in my rush to make a quasi-presentable drawing. Also, I didn't define that stick during the gesture, so it doesn't look like it's being grasped or planted on the ground -- fucking lazy. Two of the heads on here were shrunk down some in post because they looked so ridiculous. Still...small steps to progress...

No shortage of weirdos...
