Daily Routine #1

so im starting out with doing 2 minute sketches of photographs & my wooden model.
A lot of fails because in a 2 minute drawing I’m supposed to get the gesture of the model but instead I’m trying to get a GOOD sketch down instead of getting the gesture.
But the more i did it the better I got. I have to keep this up to get my skills back to par.
check out the drawings below! :)

Eyes

They eyes are the windows to ones soul. That’s what people say, in
addition to may daily routine if will sometimes only do studies on
eyes. The eyes show so much expression when you incorporate the
eyebrows. It can show when your happy, sad and surprised. If you wanna
see some GREAT eye animation that shows a lot of expression you should
check out the Wallace & Gromit films. The character Gromit has no
speaking parts but when you see his expression through his face you
know what’s going on.
Here is a couple studies I did:

Change my Daily routine

Okay I have to change up my daily routine. I have a part time seasonal job right now, that i like its cool but not where I want to be at really. And I havent worked that many days. I would love to be at a studio or doing a BUNCH of freelance jobs. Doing storyboards or designing something. But right now just waiting to start work again. While i wait I haven’t been very productive. So i set a challenge for myself: Draw Everyday. Either it be a gesture drawing, peanut shapes, anatomy, or the human body (still life or made up), I draw it and then before the night is done post it on my blog. A page or maybe even two. Here is a sample of what it would be like:
