Green croquis


Another batch of lifedrawings. I used a different kind of medium again, this water-soluble green pencil. I did find out pretty soon that there wasn't much time do the wash part for the color. The faster ones are green green felt pen with black brushpen.

And yes..the head is quite big in that one in the middle :)

Crawling Doodles

Obviously sketchbook stuff, no need to elaborate more. Some older and some more recent. One note though about these: the page with the man waving a knife and the "cowboy" in rain is all digital.

The medium does dictate some of the look&feel even though I can't escape my "house" style ;)

Winter's Croquis

Haven't felt this good with life drawing in a while. Usually the last 20min is a bit of a struggle but today I felt like I managed to get something done.

I switched in the halftime from graphite to good old ink and at the same time it's always a bit difficult to switch your mind too. The graphite ones are obviously longer poses from 15 (the left-most) to 10 minutes (the rest). These longer poses serve as a warm-up for the fast 5min ones done in ink.

Still I have to keep reminding myself on not to get caught up in details. So on many of these I left from the thought that I'd do the pose in one single line. That didn't happen with these yet so I've got plenty of drawing ahead ;D
