Finger Drawing

This is the last of the digital drawings I did at this week’s life drawing session. I forgot to take the stylus that goes with my Samsung Galaxy Note 8 tablet so I had to draw with my finger. It’s the first time I’ve done this and I’m quite pleased with the results. It’s muchContinue reading “Finger Drawing”

Head In Chiaroscuro

Just back from life drawing at Swansea Print Workshop and I continued practicing portraits using my Samsung Galaxy Tablet Note 8 with the free Markers app. I created a dark background and worked up the head in greys and white, emphasising the chiaroscuro effect from the ceiling spotlight.

Taking The Plunge

I’m concentrating on drawing heads for the next couple of weeks. I need the practice so last night at the life drawing group, I focused on getting a likeness of the model. I drew with a Derwent sketching pencil size 4B into an A3 Daler Rowney sketchbook. Our model has a very distinctive face andContinue reading “Taking The Plunge”
