slow hand ~ Andrew Ken's sketchbook

[aks9]

Thanks Lyraina! I get lost too while painting them ~ .............................

Have been completely out of practicing any draftmanship stuff... studies etc.. my head is mainly filled with all sorts of colourful and elaborate compositions i want to paint, and also struggling to finish the larger pieces I keep posting wips of. Have been taking classes with www.davidheskin.com and www.aloriaweaver.com who are teaching in Vienna right now and learning a lot of fascinating stuff about painting materials, and the history and practice of it all.


Some bits from the past few weeks

Blocking / pencil study of a young Salvador Dali






Pencil sketch of imaginal living rock island (has some ill-defined cave-like eyes that are glowing from within if you can see that)





Update on something I'm painting, egg tempera on black canvas
