Life Drawing Final

This was my final for intermediate life drawing last quarter. These were big and hard to take pictures of, so sorry for quality. There's still a lot of things I want to fix and things I see now that I could have done differently, but it was a learning experience for sure.

Figure Drawing Portfolio Dump

Finally got some good pictures of these - some repeats, some unseen drawings. I'm trying to piece together my portfolio at the moment.

Life Drawing Galore!

So many self portraits...I know. I really am assigned all these. I have grown extremely tired of my own face, haha. I threw in a model pose down at the bottom to try and mix things up. All of these use a combination of ink, charcoal, and/or gesso.

Oh, how I am tired of hands

First day of Life Drawing II and I had to draw hands again with all the beginning students. I just...I just am so tired of hands, I can't even. But thought I should post something anyways! Haha.

Charcoal and white pastel on brown paper.

Figure Drawing - Skeleton

 

I just realized I never posted this!

This is the hardest thing I’ve ever done, and I kind of just get emotional looking at it, hahaha. So here you are! Life drawing assignment #3 enjoy :)

Total time spent on this was about 11 hours. Done in charcoal.

3 Hour Figure

Ahh, the photo is terrible, I'm sorry. The drawing is so light, I had to edit it quite a bit to get the values to show up.
But yes, this drawing was done over the course of about three hours, and I'm rather proud of it. We had to measure every little thing and relationship between things before we started to draw, and it was actually pretty fun. Only drawing that I think I can say I am proud of the feet, haha.

Done in graphite on toned paper.
