Peter's Sketchbook

[Peter]

So yhhhh completely forgot to post last weekend, had family over so iddn't have the time unfortunately. Had to do extra hours this week at first so spent any free time i had drawing so again didn't have time to post.

Here's some of the stuff I did this week.

First here is my weekly life drawings. Had a male model this week which was good, don't know why the club I go to has difficulties hiring male models but oh well.

I liked the model since he had quite defined muscles, particulary on his arms but my drawings weren't all that great. Had a tough time with the long drawing, drew his body but realized the proportions were off (damn foreshortening) so had to redo it.






Here are the crits for the last 2 weeks. Having trouble accessing the week 1 crit for Brian's class so hopefully that will be resolved soon so that I can make notes. Couldn't quite get the draw-overs to fit my images for week 2 so I took a screenshot instead.








Usual demos for this week aswell as the homeworks for each class.

Had to rush Erik's demo drawing since I didn't have as much time as usual  which shows, mine turned out an ugly mess.




I was drawing towards the back of my pad for Erik's hw and it seemd to have picked up the grain of the cardboard backing which was annoying. Not pleased with this one, from start to finish it was a struggle for me.




Brian's lessons have been a really big help for me. Seeing how he hold the pencil and lays down strokes has made things alot clearer for me. Feel like my edges on this weeks homework were an improvement, feel like they transition well between the light and shade.

Demos




Homework



Lastly some more loomis skeletons from ref. I'm gonna start laying some tracing poaper over a photo, draw the skeleton and then re draw it in my pad since these have alot of issues.





Oh allmost forgot my head quicksketches from work from the other week which I kept forgetting to post. These are from Hal Foster.
