Ballpointy lifedrawings

Trying to have some form in quick ballpoint croquis is damn hard.

Thin ink models

Yesterday evening I chose to draw the 5min poses with a thin tipped ink pen and tried avoid doing too much shadows.

Again this time there was two models, so the longer poses are in pencil.

Plus there's on warm up sketch based an a previous life drawing.

Pink period Vol II

So right after the Dr Sketchy's comes regular lifedrawing session stuff. It seems I'm going through some kind of pink period :D

This time there was two models that switched in halfway (longer poses for the other and short ones with the other). I was trying different things again with the line technique going from "clean" linedrawing to more loose and painterly and doing these in fairly big size. That always creaes it's own set if challenges with the physical coverage vs. time and also keeping the proportions right.

Swinging 60's Lifedrawing

It was such a pleasure to attend after a looooong pause the Dr. Skethy's Anti Art School Finland's session on the weekend. I surely hope that they'll be coming out of their hiatus and the events will be more frequent (please please please!).

So the theme was the swinging 60's and in addition to the model's clothing, there was an awesome playlist of 60's music and projections of "psychedelic" imagery behind and on top of the model :)

The time for a pose varied from really fast scribbles of 30s to 10 minutes. I'm sure it's pretty easy to tell which are the 30s ones ;D
