Here's some sea monsters I found lying around. I tried "cleaning them up", which are the smaller drawings, and I think loose their appeal as a result. I find it really difficult to "add" to an idea by defining things like that. I suppose I should just look at what other people have done and learn what aesthetics are.

Morning Monsters!

There was a rad f-ing dance session at the Cambie last night, I'm pretty sure I saw these folks getting their groove on.

Look!

I drew this in Corel Painter, super fun.

Ian's Undersea Adventure!.........at the aquarium.

The Vancouver Aquarium rules!

Phelangarrific.

These are some hand studies
from the last few months...Good times!

Sunday Life Drawing at VFS

Filler!

I felt like putting something on the blog for the sake of putting something on the blog. To quote the Tragically Hip, "No ambition whispering over your shoulder." Yip ee.

Life Drawing

Here is some work from a life drawing class last week.

Some Animal,

Here's a gesture out of my head that I liked. Hooray for critters!

Iron Man!

This ended up as iron man, sort of.

A frustrating last few days.

It came from the pile.....

It's Been A While.....

Well I finally posted something again. Just some random drawings I found. I've been drawing loads but in a lazy "i don't feel like updating my blog so much" sort of way. More to come. : )

Rar!

Oh ya, it's another one.

Another Monster

Here's another monster I drew with some color slapped on it. I do mean slapped. Painting and coloring is still a very new concept to me. Yay.

Creature!

Here's a creature I drew the other day. I forgot how much fun it is to draw from the imagination, something I forget to do sometimes. I used this as a bit of a test for photo shop coloring. More to come, I'm liking the creature concepts.

Exploration.

Playing with color. Playing helps me learn.

Heck yes!

Just some quick sketches I liked. Go Ninja Go Ninja Go.

Monkey Man!

I believe him.

Where's the colour?

Here's a random face from who knows when lol. I'm going to use this to do some color studies.....
definitely something I need to work on.

Post Break......

I've been on a bit of a break from drawing for the last two weeks. I've been reading like a fiend instead, and currently enjoying "The Life of Pi". Here's some sketch book stuff I dug up.

Monday Life Drawing

Here's a bit of drawing from a class at VFS on Monday. 2-5 min each. I was really working on recognizing surfaces and being a little more deliberate with what I put on the paper. A better experience with the model and ultimately a better drawing is the result. Although they may look a bit "messy", this is definitely a step forward in my drawing process. I've also noticed an improvement in my more illustrative and cartoony drawings after revisiting this concept of showing surface change. Thanks to Mr. Glenn Vilppu for being awesome and helpful! Oh ya, my skills of fitting photoshop scans together need some work too, I'll try and post some more from this class to get some practice lol.

From the Sketch book

Tchaikovsky!

These were some gestures and movement studies I did this weekend at my friends concert. The conductor had some great poses and really broad movement. Throw in some live Tchaikovsky and I'll draw all day. Which I did.

Thursday Life Drawing.....

A gesture from a Thurs. class this week. I'll post a few more from that class soon.........mwhahahaha.

More Life Drawing....

I liked the weight in this pose. Hopefully I'll have more life drawing to show by Friday. Wed and Thurs are drawing days (like every other day I guess)......

Life drawing

Three 5ish minute poses from life drawing class last thusday.

Some Guy....

This fellow is in the newest class of the Classical Animation Program at VFS. No idea who he is. I like this drawing though. Thanks stranger!
