Sketches from the past week

Playing catch-up on the blog. Next post will be a completed charcoal project and its W.i.P.s.

Attempting something different. Most of my hand drawings are usually cleaner looking.

Completed version and some quick sketches

Hello everyone!

I'm doing two posts today. This one will have the finished version of my last painting, Serene, and some sketches I've been working on the last few days. The next post will just be on some interesting links. Anyways, on to the artwork!

End product, titled Serene.

Then, working at Art Walk, I was able to knock out two quick sketches while there was a lull.

Sketch of photographer Irene Quiroga's "Little Dancer"

Palm tree over water. No reference, though it was inspired by my boss' collage/mixed media paintings.

And finally, just a random practice page.

Completed version of Painting

    Worked on the last painting a bit more after some great constructive crit.

First big summer drawing

Apologies for not getting on here recently. I can be a tad bit forgetful at times. Anyways, just finished a drawing today and I thought I would put up the WiP photos and the final result.

Midway point on the drawing.

The almost complete version... watercolor, gesso and black ink.

Watercolor and recent doodles

I still have quite a ways to go, to get this all up to speed... but I decided to go ahead and upload two recent drawings- one a quick sketch and the other a watercolor and pen drawing that I'm satisfied with. As I mentioned before, I think, I'll probably upload most of what I draw on here. That being said, I have "good days" and "UGH" days, so not all drawings will be equal in overall quality. That's life, though. ^^;

Synthesized face that started off as a quick pen drawing.

And for the not so pretty, though still useful, drawing.

An... attempt at Drawing Dean Winchester, from the box set cover for S1 of Supernatural.

   Yeah, the Dean sketch didn't work out so well... Good practice for speed drawing and being more loose with my pens though. And for something that only took me ten minutes, I feel it turned out decent.
