Master of Disguise

I finally finished it! I was inspired to draw an octopus in ink, and once I finished the octopus, I couldn't help myself...so I just drew the rest of the page with abstract stuff that could possibly imitate under the sea creatures. And now my nice ink pen is officially dead!
See if you can spot the octopus.

Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend

After coming across an old portrait of Marilyn Monroe (I think I drew her 4 years ago) I was inspired to take another whack at it! The first one is...well, not all that flattering ;)

Finished!

In Motion

Just another sketch. This time in motion.

Male Form in Action

A Study

Well, I haven't posted in a while because I have just been very busy, but I decided that I had to do something today. So, of course, I drew more of the figure. This time, I focused more on the male form which is really great fun to draw...those muscles! Enjoy!

The Figure

Just a few sketches I did up today. I am absolutely loving the human body, it's an amazing subject to draw. No matter what position or how you compose the figure, there are always so many contours created by the muscle-which make for fascinating drawings!

It's Positive to be Negative

This post is of a project we had to do for my Figure Drawing class. We had to draw the "negative space" in our composition. So our model was holding a staff and had a furniture of some sort with him as positive space, our job was to draw everything else; therefore creating his figure as well as the other objects. This is an off-take of what we usually do, which is draw the positive space and do all of the details of the figure. It took a while for me to get used to the idea that all we were doing was a TON of shading! After the fact, I realized I should have made my positive space a bit larger because I had way to much to shade in!! ;)

The quality of the pictures is not that great, but at least you can get the idea.
