Male Figure Handout

Hello folks!
This is a quick handout I prepared for my Figure Drawing students.
As you can see there's some room left for text.
I'll be writing some guidelines for drawing the male figure later tonight.
Something about body language, gesture and proportions, I believe you heard that about a thousand times already so I decided to spare you from another lecture.
Thanks for stopping by. I'll try to keep the blog updated regularly.

One Sketch a Day Keeps the Doctor Away...

Hello everyone!
This pen sketch was done yesterday as a demonstration to some students. It's from a photograph, not from life. No pencils were used (or harmed) in the process. Plan ahead, be confident and (hopefully) everything will turn out ok.
Thanks for stopping by.

End of Times

Hello folks! How are you guys doing? It's been raining a lot over here. I spent almost 2 hours in traffic today, just one way.
That situation inspired me to produce this sketch. The model posed nude and I decided to fool around, adding some "political message" in the sketch. I'm not very political. I hate politics. Although I believe something's gotta change. Please let it be for the better. After what I've been through in traffic today... I say it's the end of times.
Thanks for listening and for looking.

Figure Drawing Class

Hello folks, the images shown in this post are from my figure drawing class.
The first one is a 3 minute sketch done with ink wash on Bristol paper.
The second one shows some theory and quick tips I gave to the students in class. Chalk on Chalkboard.
It's kinda hard to draw on chalkboard, it's hard to keep the correct proportions.
Thanks for stopping by.

Idle Sketches

Hello folks!
The sketches above were done today, using Pilot hi-tec pens.
The first one was done during an idle time at the college. It's a view from the teachers' lounge.
The second one was done during a figure drawing exam. The students were drawing and I was sketching. I sketched the second one standing up, without anything close by to lean on. That's why the lines are a little messed up. I also made a mistake while drawing the hand, then I drew a more accurate hand afterwards (still sketchy nonetheless).
It was kinda hard to sketch standing but still fun.
Anyways, I just wanted to update the blog.
Thanks for all your support, comments are always appreciated.
