Another of the life drawings I did last week. I got really free with the scribbling on this one and had a bit of a play. That’s one good thing about going digital, you don’t get precious about wasting paper and drawing materials because you can just wipe the screen and start again with noContinue reading “Scribbly Male Nude”

Just Ten Minutes
Another digital drawing from Thursday night’s life drawing group at Swansea Print Workshop. This is a 10 minute warm-up sketch, drawn on my Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 with a free Markers app.
An Older Male Model
Just back from life drawing at Swansea Print Workshop, working this evening with an older male model. I drew with my Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 and a free Markers app. This is a quite long pose, almost an hour, but I didn’t really get into the zone this evening. Still, it’s good to practice andContinue reading “An Older Male Model”
Why The Nude?
Here’s another drawing from the Thursday Night Life Drawing Group at Swansea Print Workshop, done on my Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 with a free Markers app. Sometimes I’m asked why I draw nudes. It’s because I’m a traditional artist and I work within the European tradition which has portrayed the human nude for around 40,000Continue reading “Why The Nude?”
Female Nude (parental guidance)
I’ve put parental guidance on this because it goes to my Facebook profile and these days Facebook is a bit finicky about nudity, even when it’s art. It didn’t use to be so. When I joined Facebook, the pictures going round were pretty close to the bone. But now it’s gone all respectable so I’mContinue reading “Female Nude (parental guidance)”
Wimp!
I am such a wimp. I have a cold, not even a particularly bad one, but honestly, manflu doesn’t come into it. I hate being ill so much that a weeny little cold is a major cause of angst. I don’t swan around in bed, that’s even worse, but I can’t manage to do muchContinue reading “Wimp!”
Slobbing With Raphael
I’m bone idle and slobbed out in front of the telly with the fab book on Raphael that Husb got me for Xmas. So my daily scribble is a study after a Raphael sketch drawn on my Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0. I’ve saved the drawing at different stages and made a slideshow so you canContinue reading “Slobbing With Raphael”
Another Digital Nude
We always finish with a long, one-hour, pose at Thursday night’s life drawing group at Swansea Print Workshop. I couldn’t be bothered to pack my drawing bag, if I’m honest, so I just took my Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 tablet and used the free Markers app. I’m learning more and more about the digital approachContinue reading “Another Digital Nude”
A Quick Nude
Just back from life drawing at Swansea Print Workshop and I did this on my Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 (8 inch) using a free Markers app. The pose was 25 minutes long. Very tricky foreshortening, really hard. With this app, I need to put in a solid background before drawing so I usually lay downContinue reading “A Quick Nude”
The Yellow Shoes
It’s been a very long day and I’ve only just got home at nearly midnight. Good day though, but I need to do a quickie blog and get some sleep. Here’s the second drawing I did at Thursday’s life drawing session at Swansea Print Workshop, using my Samsung Galaxy tablet with the free MarkerContinue reading “The Yellow Shoes”
