Illustration for a magazine article thingy. More (unrelated) illustrations to come as I do them.

Sorry I keep spamming the blog with life-drawing stuff.

Yeah I know I can’t draw with ink, which is exactly why I make a point to try.

This was fun, My fingers were covered in charcoal/conte and to clean them I decided to try to sketch with it. I actually really like this one.

Even though I was in Vancouver for the week I managed to go to a lifedrawing session. It was a bit different than our setup in Edmonton. More gesture oriented. The model was really good, she had a lot of dynamic poses.

5 minutes in conte crayon.

~One minute with a pentel brushpen

5 minutes in the usual copic greys.

I went to visit a friend of mine while she was painting, she told me to grab some tubes of acrylic and give it a shot. I don’t think I’ve touched acrylic since elementary school.

Sorry about the lame content. I just sorta started slapping paint on the page without a plan. If midnight didn’t suddenly roll around, I probably would have stuck a bird on the other side of the page or something interesting. But, I’m kindof excited that it’s not the most horrible painting I’ve ever seen. I may even try again sometime.

Been trying out Dean’s 12″ Cintiq over the last couple of days

Drawing a bunch of images to have randomly load on my blog when I fix it up, if you’re wondering what’s with all the upsidedownness.

my bear.

Just doodling. It was cute. I love beavers.
