Two Jugs And A Sugar Bowl

Does what it says on the tin, really. Didn’t have anything interesting to draw today as I spent most of it down at the Print Workshop, printing up a block print and a drypoint and I forgot to take photos of what I did to blog. So I grabbed these and stuck them on a blanket on my pouffe [had to push Ming the Merciless off first. She went off in a huff]. Quickly sketched them because I’m trying hard to draw everyday, no matter what other artwork I’m doing. It’s not easy. Those wobbly ellipses and the foreshortening – oooof! Especially the little fat jug at the back. People are so much easier to draw. Maybe I should force myself to do some still lives for practice – or penance lol 🙂

 

Better go and apologise to Ming the Merciless now. Cats have ways of getting revenge!

  1. I’ve really been enjoying the series of sketches you’ve been posting lately. Makes me feel good that I’m not the only ones posting quick ‘sketchy’ stuff.

    1. Thanks Hansi. I think it’s an important part of professional practice to sketch and to let the public know what we do to keep improving our skills. I think of speed sketching as our equivalent of a musician practising their scales. A lot of people seem to think that our ability comes from out of nowhere, and don’t appreciate the amount of time and work we put in to honing our abilities.
