Back to Life

Today I went to a drawing marathon from 10 am to 4 pm.
The model used some props...
A rope that hangs from an overhead bar...
A box...
And a shovel...

Finally, a little scenario.
Needless to say, it was a wonderful day at the studio!

  2. These are some great drawings, the way you use line is so refreshing. The pose on the last drawing, the man with the head in his hands, reminds me of a Van Gogh.

  12. So much great stuff! The three with the chair are particularly nice and the one with his head between his knees is really terrific. Lots of emotion and tension. Six hour drawing marathon sounds really cool!
