August 19 Painting and Life Drawing
A Friday of painting, life drawing and beer.
My 99 Portraits project is going slowly, but progressing steadily.
With all the special drawing sessions, it feels like a while since I've been to a regular life drawing session! We started off with six gesture drawings to determine our long pose: I got two drawings finished during the long pose. The curly hair was really difficult to work with, but it was still...

Friday nights is a long pose night, but we had a double tie in voting for which pose to do. We decided to do two poses instead. Since... Continue Reading →
Life Drawing, 02.04.16
So tonight's life drawing session at Jankura Art Space was a spin off celebration of Goya's birthday - so we did 'Goua's witch'. So to fit the theme, I brought my black paper and white pencil. The contrast turned out pretty well me thinks. Keep arting my friends!
