Portfolio Prep

alright, so subway sketching on the weekend was a terrible idea... got a mountain of homework ahead of me...

been putting together my life drawing portfolio, so figured I'd digitize them as well... oh and as a note for fellow students, all but 1 of these drawings were accomplished during lab time...





These last 2 are modelled drawings, which I'm pretty sure I've explained before... I think I've been greatly improving on them...


there are alot more that I could put up... but I gotta get back to some painting/sketching/perspective/etc etc etc...

Finally, a scanner

Ok... so finally got a scanner up and running... I can finally upload a metric ton of sketchs that I've done... random compositions... etc... etc...

I'll start with a group of subway sketches that I've been doing over the term... More often then not I'll spent the commute to school and back just sketching on the subway... technically I'm supposed to gesture the entire body... but thanks to rush hours, I've been limiting myself to the facial features... and on occasion the upper body...

I've been trying to incorporate basic tonal values to these quick doodles... using a watercolour brush pen with a India Ink/water cocktail...




I particularly enjoy this last page... I remember the subway being jam packed... so I was only able to draw one persons face unobstructed.. So I was able to complete a gesture along with a more polished inked drawing...


Right so hopefully I'll have a bit of time over the next few days to post some random sketches I've been doing for old/new projects
