In this gesture drawing, female figure stands with all her weight on the right leg, and the left leg is used for balance. Most often, I use willow charcoal for gesture, but here I also used conte. I like the pose, but some things could be improved. I left the right leg unfinished, and I … Continue reading Female Figure Gesture Drawing

Here's another sanguine drawing of a female figure. This time, she's sitting in a chair. I like the upward direction the pose is giving to the drawing, but I'm not entirely happy with the chair perspective. Still, it's a good practice drawing and I think I captured the gesture of the pose well. I used … Continue reading Female Figure Sitting in the Chair
All of the previous gesture drawings I posted were done with charcoal. But here's a sanguine drawing! Most of the time, I use willow or vine charcoal for gesture drawing. Occasionally, I use sanguine such as Pipo's chalk or Conte. It is a less forgiving material, but I do like the look and it allows … Continue reading Sanguine Drawing of Sitting Female Figure
I drew this gesture from live model in 2019. I used charcoal on light-gray paper. Depicted here is a standing female figure from the front. She's looking to the left with her arms behind. She's leaning on her right leg, which throws her hip to the side. I like the overall gesture of this pose.
This is a gesture drawing of a female figure from the front leaning on a stool. I drew it 2019 from life model. It was probably a 20-minute pose as back then I didn't have the habit of signing every drawing, and can't be 100% sure. Looking at this drawing now, I see a lot … Continue reading Leaning Female Figure Front, Charcoal Drawing

I've started writing multiple times, and every time it would just turn into whining and ranting. Instead, I'll keep those thoughts to myself, and try to stay positive at least in this web space. Therefore, I … Continue reading Digital in Reality – Life Drawing Sessions
This piece took me about 30 minutes, and I wish I had done it on a better paper. I used rough newsprint, and it's not the best paper for longer poses. Still, I'm fairly satisfied with the results, especially considering that I didn't get the best vantage point for this pose.
Sometimes, I think of characters from video games while drawing, and then I end up with something heroic ^_^
A couple of quick, but interesting gestures. Especially the one on the left, what is it up to?! The one on the right looks as if it's half-submerged into a bath of milk 😀
I really like the figure on the right. I think for once, torso turned out pretty well ^_^ - Where is your corset? And no stockings!- I'm against them.- But you are not properly dressed.- Who's to say what's proper? What if it were agreed that "proper" meant wearing a codfish on your head? Would … Continue reading Two standing figures, charcoal drawing
