Sleepy woman....

A woman lying down. Don't worry, I am fairly sure she is alive. Probably awake too!

A little bit of foreshortening

Foreshortening! The devil of life drawing! Rah!
This is one I am proud of though, so it all worked out well

Sometimes I like to sit naked on a stool and stare...

And also real life drawing!
I think her head may be a bit too small....

Coffee people

So, after drawing musicians, we went to a coffee shop and drew people. As you do.

It's hard drawing people when they move so fast...

More musicians and a newspaper

Continuing drawing the musicians, who then walked over to Wensdi and I to ask what we were doing. They had noticed out intent staring at them and wondered why, so we showed them the work. Much fun was had by all!

Also, the guy on the bottom was drawn in a coffee shop shortly afterwards. That will continue on the next page. Currently, it just looks like he is disinterested in music...

Brass Band!

Drawn whilst walking around town. It was a small gathering of instrument playing minstrels! With a tuba! We just had to get a picture! Of course, not a photo picture. A picture picture!

They were difficult to draw, because they moved a lot....

Creepy faces...

This page has some seriously creepy faces on it. It kinda puts me off a little....

Life Drawing

Yup, this guy again. Mr Moob.
His bum was really that angular. I swear.

27th September Life Drawing

Some life drawing from 27th September. I can't even remember what he was holding. Some kind of light maybe? I dunno.
And yes, he has moobs.

And one final page of faces for the beginning of September...

This isn't a great page.
Enough said.

Actually, some of those faces are really creepy. Very, very sorry...

9th September 2011 drawings

Honestly, I have no idea why I draw the things I draw. What is going on with the woman in the middle? And the ugly baby?

9th September Faces

Back to some faces now, not a lot though.
Some of these haven't worked very well at all...

One session 2/2

This one, I like. I don't know why, I just do.

One session 1/2

She seemed sleepy.
Trying to be a bit weird with colour, and all I really managed was a strange zombie creature....

This is one of two parts....

More Lifedrawing 07th September

Her body gets smaller as she goes up (or does it get bigger as she goes down?) and her foot is a little ... yeah. But it's not that bad...

I am about to make a cup of tea, apparently...

More life drawing, all from the 7th September.
Here, the woman is saying: "Yeah, I'm naked. What of it? Go make me a cup of tea..."

Actually, that last thing is actually being said by my girlfriend right now, who is nudging my waist with her empty cup....

7th September Back to life drawing for a while

Here we go back to some lifedrawing for a while. Now here we are in September, and I just started a new life drawing class, meaning I won't have any of the old classes anymore. So no more 'life drawing with a difference'...

21st August drawings...

Okay, back to simply posting depending on date of drawing. Here we are on... 21st August, so I'll move on from here.
I believe the first couple of drawings were done whilst my girlfriend was roller skating, so I tried to draw them with skating helmets. I failed miserably, so stopped after those two. oh well. Not a great page, but this is all about showing development, so enjoy!

Final life drawing of faeries

I've uploaded two at once here, the last two life drawings of this session, mainly because the first drawing isn't that great.
Story next? Um, let's see...

Two faeries are fighting over a baby, because the want to eat it (apparently what faeries used to do). Eventually, all the fighting proved exhausting so they all had a sleep.

Personally, I don't like the first picture. The second one is kind of nice, but there is no weight in the figures on the first. It doesn't look like they are pulling at each other at all, just kind of standing there. I can't remember if the models were actually pulling at the time or not...

Faces some more.

Here is two pages at once, because the second was quick caricatures of real people, drawn as concepts for an actual animation. Link to follow once it is available online.

I've noticed the dates of these are a little skewy. I will wait until I have finished with the faerie life drawing before I get back on track!

Life Drawing Faeries again

Here, a faerie is saying "Where did I put my new iPad? Did I leave it over this wall?" Then she leans over the wall, with her knee up, and says "Ah, there it is! Over there, in that field..."

Say hello to Mr Shouty

Actually, this page isn't too bad. I like the shouty man. I name him Mr Shouty.

Mr Shouty demands you watch my blog...

Life Drawing

Another faerie.
Here, the faerie has found a penny on the floor. He is homeless and broke and cannot even afford clothes, so naturally he bends down to pick it up.

I liked the shadow cast by this pose, but failed in getting it to look right....
