Another Life Drawing (Female Nude)
Another Life Drawing (Female Nude)… Here’s another life drawing I did at Swansea Print Workshop’s drawing group this week. It was a thirty minute pose that I drew on my Samsung Galaxy Note 8 tablet with a free Markers app. I started with a mid-brown ground laid down with my finger and then worked theContinue reading “Another Life Drawing (Female Nude)”
Back To Life Drawing (Female Nude)
Back to life drawing (female nude). I started back to life drawing group this week after a break of several months, life got in the way. I think the break did me some good, I’m a bit looser and I’m taking more chances and playing around with distorting the figure. I drew onto my SamsungContinue reading “Back To Life Drawing (Female Nude)”
Warming Up
Here’s a quick warm-up sketch I did at life drawing last week at Swansea Print Workshop. After this I worked on a portrait study for an hour, but I find I need to have a quick scribble to start with, to get used to the model and pose before committing myself to a longerContinue reading “Warming Up”

Being an artist’s model isn’t just a matter of sitting still, good models bring an undefinable something to the creative process. I love going to the sessions, the group of artistsContinue reading “Life Drawing (Female Nude)”

Each gallery artist has a bit of wall to display their work. The Workers also has a Main Gallery forContinue reading “A Gallery Visit”
Just Back ….
Just back from life drawing at Swansea Print Workshop and I am pretty tired now. I was working with a marvellous young model this evening, using my Samsung Galaxy Tablet Note 8 with the free Markers app. I used my finger to draw as much as I did with the stylus and kept overlaying tonesContinue reading “Just Back ….”
Life Drawing (Female Nude )
Just back from life drawing at Swansea Print Workshop. This is an older model who I really enjoy working with. I made a banana cake with a fudgy chocolate and peanut butter filling for the tea break. I used my Samsung Galaxy Tablet Note 8 with the free Markers app for the drawing. Now I’mContinue reading “Life Drawing (Female Nude )”
