Pen. Paper. Nude. Chair.

Just back from life drawing at Swansea Print Workshop. I started drawing with my Samsung Galaxy tablet and the darn thing ran out of battery! So I had to go old school and use pen and paper; Faber Castell Pitt drawing pen size F in sepia into a Khadi handmade paper sketchbook, pre coloured withContinue reading “Pen. Paper. Nude. Chair.”

The Nightmare Foot

Here’s another digital life drawing I did at Swansea Print Workshop this week. I love doing life drawing; I love anatomy and I like to challenge myself with a bit of foreshortening. It’s hard to draw though. That left foot was a nightmare. I used my Samsung Galaxy Note 8 tablet with a free MarkersContinue reading “The Nightmare Foot”

Colouring In

I tried something new (for me) this evening. I scanned a monochrome life drawing I did some time ago and uploaded it onto my Samsung Galaxy Tablet Note 8. I loaded it into the free Markers app and coloured it in. Great fun. This is one of my favourite models, an older woman who isContinue reading “Colouring In”

A Body In Space

Here’s another digital study of a female nude I did at this week’s life drawing group at Swansea Print Workshop. It is a quick sketch, about 10 minutes, where I concentrated on siting the body within the space. I used a Samsung Galaxy Tablet Note 8 with a free Markers app.

The Egon Shiele model (female nude)

Just back from life drawing at Swansea Print Workshop. We had the ‘Egon Shiele’ model again. She’s great to draw. This was a one hour pose and a lot of it was spent drawing the hands. I used my Samsung Galaxy Tablet Note 8 with the free Markers app. I saved the drawing regularly toContinue reading “The Egon Shiele model (female nude)”

Fierce Foreshortening ( Female Nude )

I did this digital sketch at last night’s life drawing session. I like the challenge of foreshortening and a reclining pose is right up my street. The shape of the body is very strange but I measured accurately and that’s the shape thrown by the foreshortening. I used the free Markers app on my SamsungContinue reading “Fierce Foreshortening ( Female Nude )”

Fiendish Foreshortening (Female Nude)

Just back from life drawing at Swansea Print Workshop and here’s a drawing in progress. The pose was about 45 minutes. I used my Samsung Galaxy Tablet Note 8 using the free Markers app,saving regularly to keep a record of the development of the drawing. I like to go to life drawing regularly as theContinue reading “Fiendish Foreshortening (Female Nude)”

Head And Shoulders

Just back from life drawing at Swansea Print Workshop and I have been focusing on drawing a head and shoulders pose. Our model was sitting above my eyeline with her head tilted back which I find very hard to draw, so it was good practice. I used my Samsung Galaxy Tablet Note 8 using theContinue reading “Head And Shoulders”

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)”
