Life Drawing at MICA

I went to the Baltimore Dr. Sketchy’s a few weeks ago and this week I went back to MICA for a life drawing session. Figure drawing kick i guess. Obsession du jour.

It was funny that I haven’t been back to MICA in years much less a life drawing class and the model turns out to be a guy I’ve drawn a million times (very lanky and a good model). Somethings never change I guess.

I made this pinup moji based on some figure drawing at Dr. Sketchys Baltimore. This outfit was from the quick poses but was so sassy I wanted to make it a moji.

There is a new Sheriff in town. And he’s a drunk.

Department of Eagles

Saw this great video for the Department of Eagles song “No One Does It Like You” I did this quick drawing of one of the dancer soldiers.

I really like the costumes that Marcel Dzama created. The whole think has a live action Spirited Away type feel but set in a weird Goya like setting.

Poise

Here is my take on poise. I think i got a little off topic, but I was VERY influenced by a particular style of Ian Kim and I became more interested in the style rather than  the topic (shrug).

The bear was a drawing i did a long time ago but thought the piece had a kind of circus vibe.

Subtract

Wanted to play around with a very graphic style mixed with an element that was more rendered.

These brown ninjas are hacking up the plus sign to reveal its meaty insides.

More Copics

I want to make sweet love to copics markers today.

This is from a sassy Brigitte Bardot photo.

FYI. Graphite becomes very soluble on absorbent papers.

Copics from My Sketchbook

The paper from my sketch book is soooo much more absorbent.

Copics

Playing around with the copics markers i just got.

I think i’ll like them once i get used to the way they apply color.

Copics after the fact. I think this was my favorite sketch of the night. 5min pose i think.
