Drawing Portraits, Week 3

This is a series on a class called Drawing Portraits, at the Drawing Studio. In this class, as the name would suggest, we will focus on the human face.

For week three, like last week, after some instruction, we drew a live model. We started with some quick gesture drawings, and then settled in for a longer pose.

Here is what I drew for the long pose:

Painting Studio with Betina Fink, Week 4 and 5

This is a six part series -- well, actually a four part series -- on the class I'm taking at The Drawing Studio, called Painting Studio with Betina Fink. All the work I will be doing in the class will be in acrylic paint.

The reason this is now a four part series is two fold. First, for the last two classes, we've worked on the same painting. Also, I will miss the last class. So, there you go.

Like I said above, the last two weeks we've worked on the same painting. Basically, it is a still life of musical instruments and flowers. This is what I created:

Art Show

Today was an exciting day. I had a piece of art that I created featured in an art show. The art show took place at The Drawing Studio, and included art from the Drawing Fundamentals classes. The piece of mine in the show was a still life of desert vegetation done in graphite. In the picture below, it is the one at the top.
