Different angle

I did another pose this week...I like some of what I did...mainly the elbow and feet, I also think I was able to capture some of the weight in her chest and stomach, but I was too heavy handed when I was drawing her face...way too many dark lines...it's a bit distracting. Next week, I should get into some colour...I'll choose between these two poses when I do.

Take care,

Gavin

Lifedrawing

This is from lifedrawing this past Friday at Basic Inquiry (www.lifedrawing.org).

I monitor the sessions there every Friday, it's a really cool place and well run for anyone who wants to do some lifedrawing in Vancouver.

They have sessions pretty much everyday of the week, ranging from gestures, to long poses (12 hours), depending on which day you go. This is from the long pose session, which we do on Friday nights....This is the first three hours. for the last 9 hours, I'll try colouring it in on my computer. So, I'll scan this and then use it as the foundation for some digital painting.

I also bought some Oil paints, which I plan to learn how to use at some point very soon. Thats something I've wanted to do for a very long time, so now is my chance.

I figure painting from life using the computer is probably a cheaper way to learn initially. But at some point I'll have to tackle mixing paints the traditional way. I am looking forward to the challenge though.

Anyways,

I hope everyone is doing well. Thanks for all the feedback and support.

Take care,

Gavin
