Drawings So Far

Well, I'm making an effort to draw each day, but unfortunately it isn't always working. In fact, its working less than half the time. But, I will continue to draw. I look forward to finishing this sketch book, 70 pages, there is always such a sense of accomplishment at filling a sketchbook. Without further ado, here are my drawings!

My first drawing in years. The chair across the living foom from where I was sitting :) I love the texture the shading gives, and have decided to run with that for a little while.

Ho Hum, a cylinder and a box. Not drawn from life, mostly, though I did look at a candle on the ottoman. The whitespace here is interesting.

This is the self portraite I wrote about earlier. It is still disturbing to me. The lower photo is of the drawing it came from. Interestingly, I think the facial features are captured in the drawing, but some of the proportions are off, so it doesn't look human really.

A couple of easy drawings, just doodling around. Again, the whitespace in the chair knob is interesting. In my drawing experience I tend to not leave any whitespace, but cover it all, regardless of the lighting. This is a much better technique.

Now, I shall knit.
