Update #110

2010-04-26T20:58:00.000-06:00

Been doing some life drawing at the local museum. (only place in town to do it) These all range anywhere from 1-15mins. After looking back over these I've realized I have put a bit too much focus on the torso and the pose itself (not entirely a bad thing) and less on the smaller portions of the body like the hands, feet, and head. Hopefully my next update of life drawings will consist of those things, as my practice here seems to reflect in my other work.

I've only been using 2b/4b pencils.

An Update on the Updates

2007-09-19T22:58:00.001-06:00

Or lack of.

So August was kinda crazy for me. I moved and got ready for school, and... now I've been in school a few weeks taking [art] classes.

Just as soon as I start getting things [back] I'll be tossing them up here, as well as some sketchbook work. So I got plenty coming, as well as more super-awesome low-poly models.

And on a side note, my daughter, Avalee, turned 1 just two days ago :D
