More Pipes

I went searching for more pipes this morning. I wasn't disappointed to find this gem. The challenge of drawing discs, cylinders and protruded hexagons in my short, self-imposed time limit made for a fun experience.

Tonight's lesson involves triangulation and enveloping - which I believe are techniques for getting more accurate proportions in drawing. I hope to return to doing more long form drawings soon. And painting ... I miss my office.

Trying out a challenge to myself - to create "finished" pieces with a limited color palette on a consistent schedule. I am still working out the final guidelines. I think I would like to challenge myself to use a new texture in each piece as well. I've had this unfinished sketch in my sketchbook forever. Even though I'm not entirely happy with it - it feels great to finally have it done!

A Competent Profile

As I start to become more familiar with proportions and measurements for the various faces I attempt to draw, I am starting to wonder how to make a more complete portrait with my limited time. Do I stick to lines? Do I bring a brush and some ink? Which lines should I include? Which shapes are important to represent? Maybe this is a good time to look at the work other artists have done and try to work out some of their methods.
