These feet are of a anatomy practice done earlier this year but I then forgot about them till I was flipping through my sketch book.

one more drawing from nature, I really enjoyed the color on the.. stems?

2010-11-04T09:30:00.000-07:00

Two more drawings of plants I've found around the home, on the second photo I let a red marker bleed into this page, and I was severely angry haha.

the first of some botany drawings, I started drawing plants after seeing a book in Barnes and Noble about botany. Since I'm cheap and wont buy the book yet, I just started drawing whenever I see a plant or flower I find around the house and out hiking.

A figure drawing practicing the figure and what not, just trying something new here.

Another concept drawing the one on the left is rendered in Photoshop and on the right is a drawing which no longer exists because somebody decided they'd wipe the charcoal on their shirt >.>

Drawing conceptually

I drew this concept for something I'm working on. Hopefully I can go through with this project and actually do something with it!

Just another Drawing of lately, and some calligraphy practice, I've been learning it I think the letter Z was a fun one and oh the brown stain in the bottom is some paint I made using pigments I found.

This Was the first drawing I did in my endeavor to capture things in motion, I have to say my whale is my favorite of the two. I've digitally edited these two drawings and will probably post them in the near future.

After being inactive for the last couple of months I've finally started drawing again. I decided that just challenging my self with a different idea each day instead of thinking I must draw works so much better, then say just drawing out of habit. So lately I've just picked an animal or something in motion and capturing it, trying to convey motion in the small space my Moleskine provides me...

So on thew first page I was just testing some different things with watercolors. First I just painted with pure color not a lot of water, then I added black to it to see the shade color then white to see the tint color and just a straight up wash. the next page is a feather I found at the new house and i taped it into my molskine and painted some organic shapes around it

Todays post is a barbers chair from our local barbers shop, he's into retro stuff and this was a really interesting piece to draw i thought. I used ink marker and water colors on this, I used Letraset markers for any who are wondering. And today was my 20th birthday the barber thought I was just turning 16 today, he was quite surprised when he found out my age Other than that my day was pretty hectic finding new dress shirt and shoes from the mall.

One of my first of sketches from my illustrated Journal. I haven't ever based my sketches on my journal before although it makes life easier when working with your sketchbook my fear of messing up clean pages was totally gone, its been awhile of drawing any kind of profile from looking at people in public its always uneasy staring at people especially when they catch you. I forgot my glasses unfortunately so this woman catches me staring and squinting at her awkward moment if I do say so myself.
