When I sketch at gigs, I don’t just want to draw the bands. They’re often moving so fast that it gets a bit frantic so to cool off a bit, I draw the audience. Sometimes it’s fun to draw heads, sometimes legs. This is a leg sketch. It’s good practice to get that foreshortening on feet. I’ve been noticing, too, how rock men seem to wear shorts and trousers with HUGE pockets stuffed full of…well…stuff. I have loads of drawings of legs at gigs and I’m tempted to do a big screen print of them all, Hmmm.
These legs were at Hippos on the High Street during Swansea Fringe last weekend.
