drawing!

Here is a quick little update, a couple of clothed figure drawing assignments, graphite on paper, and brush and ink. I had fun drawing wolverine, I think I might tackle some more in the near future. Also an isometric perspective illustration and a 45 minute quick study of a skull, which is oil on a 8x10inch board.

I was also lucky enough to run into Australian artist Rod Luff, setting up his show today in downtown sf, some amazing looking sketchbook pages and paintings to see there. It opens tomorrow night!

Life Drawing

Still Life update

Here are some work in progress shots of my first still life homework assignment. Its 16 x 16 inchs, oil on gesso board. I think i will sand down the background on the painting to make it nice and smooth, give a little more contrast between the more painterly objects and background.

Life Drawing

Here is a little dump of life drawings I have done earlier this semester. All of which are studies, with times ranging from 3 to 40 minutes. Using charcol on newsprint for all my figure studies at the moment.

Still Life

Here are some images of small paintings I have done in my still life painting class this semester all done from life, all between 3 - 5 hours. Its been nice to get back into painting with oils after an 8 month break. I look forward to tackling some bigger paintings this year as well.
