Last long pose session and Gallery Girls

Last one from our long pose sessions. Love that costume!




Some sketches from the latest Gallery Girls event. Egyptian theme this time. (Like you couldn't tell.) I know I've said it before, but if you live in the Bay Area check it out. The next event is in September, and the theme is going to be a circus sideshow. Sounds interesting.

New long pose painting

Here's a new one from our long pose sessions. I actually got around to getting all of the textures of the pillows on this one. Six hours in Photoshop.

Monday night long pose

Just a one off session last night. I've been really happy with the way these have been coming out. Lots of fun. Three hours in Photoshop.

Monday Night Long Pose

Here's a new one from Monday night painting group. 6 hours in Photoshop.

Painting group 6 hour pose

Here's my finished piece from our first painting group. Two three hour sessions. I'm pretty happy with the end result. I haven't done any painting from life in a while, except for a few Colors! doodles.

Sunday sketchin'

A couple from Sunday afternoon. It was so nice out, I couldn't just sit around the house all day.

Dr. Sketchy's and Saturday session

Decided to bust out the pencils for Saturday's figure drawing session. I really like getting to finesse and carve out the lines when I use a pencil. A nice change of pace from my usual ink drawings. Although I find I waste more time noodling the drawing than I would if I was using ink; mostly because I can.





I was having an off night at Dr. Sketchy's; got there late and got stuck in the back row. Even though there weren't a lot a people there, there were enough to obstruct the model on a lot of poses. I won't be making that mistake again. I finally started to get warmed up by the time the session was over (of course).
