Models and Lines

I've been attending an informal figure drawing session on Sundays. For the most part, none of the sketches I bring home are worthy of displaying - this is no exception. Still, today I brought a new enthusiasm and a little more experience with me.

I have learned so much about drawing people since I started this project. Every day, a new challenge presents itself. I may not always have the tools to create something amazing, but I will always walk away with a little more wisdom. Art is an amazing, complicated, difficult and wonderful thing - it's a world I'm proud to be a part of.

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.

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!
