Life drawink

Who's hungry?

We're working with a deceptive title today because the first thing I want to sneak in is just a Photoshop idea quickly done. It's based on nostalgic feelings of missing home cooked fish I guess.

Okay, now we can go through the life drawing part, but before that I'll point out I wanted to focus on the human muscle system for life drawing, so I've included some studies done the morning before life drawing session






This last guy was just a quick attempt to apply what I've understood from muscles into an action pose I thought of.


Finally, the actual life drawing session turned out really good and it was a good idea in retrospect to dedicate the morning to understanding the thing you want to study





These last two were from the same page, but the scanner was too small for the whole thing so they're in two parts.



 The thing I realized during the session, was that most of the books I looked at showed male anatomy and the models were female, and that was useful in the end because the difference was so much more evident.
The models changed poses too quick for me to give the whole anatomy enough detail, but I think I would prefer them this way, just enough detail not to get too messy.

For this last bit I'll just share some excerpts from Ye Sketchbooke:







These guys were all caricatured from a book on film, I forget the name, but they're all from movies. The one on the bottom was really interesting, it was from a "documentary" I think. He barely had a face and half his hair was wavy and the other side was like a wig.




















This page was done on the way to London on the bus, it features the perfect pizza, a tree pie with eyes and wings and a quick Aizzah profile on the right.













This was just a recording of two instances in a day which could come together to tell a cool story.
The top part is a police man just carrying a small kid's heavy school bag through the way to uni like it was the last thing he wanted to do, but he did it all the way anyway. His security vest was tiny for him and it looked really uncomfortable.
The lower bit is when I was walking back from uni a beat down truck drove by with this torn up charred security vest hanging off its ladder.
So. Hopefully the two images are not related in real life but it was good for story development so I sketched it out.
