I didn't post last week's life drawing sketches, because I wasn't too excited about them, even though I always learn something and appreciate the experience. I am not sure how "experienced" last week's model was ... not too inspiring, but she was fun to sketch in her silky black slip. Her naturally curly hair and the filigree on her slip were fun to draw with my Doc Martin Hydrus Watercolor droppers.
Yesterday, Burt posed, and I like the results more. I especially like the one with the sweat pants. It seems to capture more the moment and the character.
Too blue ... Avatar or Smurf? |

I like all of these - and think that top one is a winner, even if the model wasn't that inspiring :)
Thanks, Rhonda,
I DO like her slip. It's really a luxury to go to life drawing as I learn so much whoever is up there. Nic to hear from you!
Love the Hydrus dropper line work.... very nice!
Great figures and lovely looseness, all of them are beautiful.
Ruth, Thanks for your comment. I have a whole love-hate thing going with the Hydrus Watercolors. Mostly love, but wish I could handle them better!
Thank you, Jane! The looseness comes from not being able to "control" the Hydrus Watercolor droppers as well as I would like. They are really intense colors, and I just "drag" the droppers. I don't squeeze them, but they are still VERY intense. Try them!
