Hospital Equipment

This sketch is done on a piece of parchment paper - you know, the paper you make certificates and diplomas on. I was using some new pens I cam across - the Nexus Art pen from Koh-l-Noor. They are pretty interesting... This was a CPAP machine in my Dads hospital room.

My How Time Slips By

Just after my last post I rushed off to Albuquerque to visit my Dad. Somehow time has escaped me and I haven't posted in almost two months - I have been worse.

I do have some sketches I made on my trip to post today and some more drawings from my figure drawing class that I will post later.

This is an entry in my sketch journal on the flight to Albuquerque.

Figure Drawing - Second Week

This weeks subject was more fun. We worked on foreshortening. Trinka had us exaggerating proportions to really get a feel for it.





Getting ready to go off to Albuquerque for a couple of weeks. If I get a chance to copy my class work this weekend I'll try to get it posted next week.

My First Life Drawing Course

Day one was the basic sort of stuff trying to capture gestures and proportions. These are some sketchbook entries that I made before going to the first class. I was using photographs of baseball players as a reference. These type of sketches are described it the book "How to Draw Comics the Marvel Way."
The first day of class we did some really loose gestures and then tried to actually draw our live model.

I think our instructor has her work cut out for her in my case.
