A loose still life I did a few days ago, I'm going to do a more detailed one soon, and a nude study on charcoal, I always wanted to try it and I'm having a lot of fun!

Meh, weekend's over.

[wla91]

Since I have the day free, I decided to finish this study from the movie Leon The Professional I started earlier this week.

[wla91]

Another study guys! Trying to get the colors right and more details.

A nude study from today, trying to nail the colors and practicing with the softbrush!

These are random sketches from this week, and having fun with charcoal, keeping it loose










Thanks for looking!

A self portrait in charcoal






Spent the whole Saturday doing this for a class, it was fun to do!

Random sketches from these days

Hi wla91. Nice sketchbook. Those charcoal studies in particular stand out; there's a really nice fluidity to them. Keep at it.

[EduardoGaray]

when sketching, try to work more on how you are going to construct the figure rather than drawing what you see. I noticed that you already have started to work on that, so push the construction a bit further. And keep working! :)

Thank you man! It's funny that you mention that because in my last studies I was feeling like I wasn't absorbing as much as I wanted, I realized it was because of the construction, so thanks for pointing that! I will apply some Loomis and Bridgman to my next studies :)

Here are some selfies from today, keeping them loose with a 0.8 liner, trying to observe myself and get the proportions and likeness right! And also a digital one :)








Also 2 sketches I did in the bus yesterday, it's a long trip so I have to do something



Have a nice day!

[wla91]

Some stuff from today!

[wla91]

It's been a busy week with finals approaching, more updates soon! Meanwhile here's a still life from today



Have a nice day!

[wla91]

Some random stuff, still busy with finals, but after next week there's going to be some free days before the next quarter starts! :)















Thanks for looking!

[wla91]

Hey guys, I'm finally on vacations... Until September 2nd :|.

Anyways, here is some stuff I've done, I have also been reading Loomis and Bridgman and trying to observe and apply what I've read rather than just copying everything.










That's all for now, gotta keep practicing!

Hope you're all good! :)

Lots of great practice--I really like the colors in that cup/headphone study. They have that "nicer than a photograph cause maybe they've been painted from life" look.
