Halloween Special | Life Drawing



The halloween special for life drawing was Day of the Dead. It was great fun and was definitely a challenge. I think my 20second drawings turned out the best, getting the body shape and character lines clearer with each try.

1st Drawings | 7/10/2015 | Lesson 1 | Life Drawing



Wednesday was our first life drawing lesson. We had to sketch out the installation in front of us in any media we wanted too. For my first sketch I chose a graphite pencil and combined 3 different levels to give an abstract feel. For my second piece, I used white and yellow chalk and focused on one part of the installation in front of me. I made one part of the structure into a teepee.

For my first lesson, I think I did well and I look forward to the lessons in the future!

First Digital Paintings | Lesson 1 | Still Life | Photoshop


These are the first ever digital drawings I have done on the tablet using photoshop. They were done in class and I can see that there is a lot of room for improvement. This was also the first time that I used the Intuos Pro tablet to do drawings with rather than my older Wacom Bamboo. I will have to practise a lot more with the brushes and shortcuts.
I'm going to try and push myself to do some extra drawings every week on photoshop outside of class if I have some spare time, so I can gain more experience and knowledge of brush sizes, colours, blending and positioning.
