Two more

I am posting two more gestures to compensate for yesterday, the day I missed.

This second drawing is actually in the correct orientation. The model did this hand stand kind of thing where his whole body was resting on his feet and palm. supercool.

Leaning on the stick

Another one that the figure drawing teacher picked out. I'm not too fond of it tho.

Bounce back

Yes, I have just bounced back from a bout of cold. Shouldn't have gotten wet in the rain. Nevermind.

I shall now start posting more gestures from the weekend homework assignment.
I took my little sketchbook to open model session on Friday. And these drawings were the ones selected by Sherran Deems.

Midterms week keeping me busy

So just one quick update today. Maybe more regular posting next week onwards.

Run for it

Done from a bus as I saw another student running to catch the bus. I look at it and go it does not look very exaggerated like a running cartoon.
I think I know why. The student was also carrying a backpack that probably weighed him down a little and prevented him from running a little more actively.

One more from the horizontal Brush pen series

Done at one of the MILAAP dance practice sessions.

Horizontal Brush Pen technique

I read about using a brush pen like a conte instead of like a brush to draw gestures and this was one of my first attempts. The wide horizontal surface of the brush ended up giving the drawing a little lumpy feel as my lines were not as thin and streamlined.
