Pastels 1

Around 5 to 10 minute drawings

Tone

Collection of 5 ~10 minute long drawings.

..actually i think it was all 5 minutes..

Series of quick caricatures again

style has improved yet still around a minute drawing each.

I've gone to mall sketching a few times, and can't like it too much..hallway is much funnarrr

o and that's Hoony top middle

Life drawings from last term

Life drawing update after ages. First one is about 17 minutes drawing, and the rest is 30 sec, 1s and 3s. A few drawings(debbie) are quite new. I'll be updating something other than life drawings soon.

Quick caricatures under a minute

More like around 30 seconds..

Done in the hallway of school, from walking people in front of Tim Hortons.

Quick drawings, quick designs.

Goal is not to get so designy or draw pretty but to get the essence of impression and attitude.

I've been doing it alot since the first year, as well as cafe sketches(cafe and hallway is quite different).

Color pencil?

Aaah damn it..i just accidentally erased something that i was working on for about an hour at like 3 AM.

OOOOOooook whatever i'm just going to bed.

btw the sketch's somewhere around 3-5 min.

My recent favourite model. drew her kinda designy but stiff

Life from past

1 minute gesture from last year and a recent 5 minute. I did alot in 1 minute but wasn't able to draw the whole figure. But the paper i used was twice bigger than normal size, it's literally impossible to draw big and fast and make it look nice. Well, at least for now. I established a new drawing style with this drawing. It was something i've been doing time to time, but finally it came to an realization.

5 minute one was an exercise directed by T, my lifedrawing teacher. I was just so rusty after i got back from my summer break and T gave me some useful tips. Alot of major/minor mistakes, but i liked how i managed my time and learned alot in a single drawing.

Some lifesketches from last summer

Ehm i just wanted to draw that crazy mushroom hair in a subway. I donno why, but mushroom hair's just so... ... .........

Second one is my mom and grandma. i kinda pushed shapes and designs too much for my mom's face..she doesn't look like that. But i liked it, eventhough my mom looked a lil depressed.

Sometimes i memorize a person's characteristics and draw it after. I think it's somewhat fun

.

And the third one is first year stuff. I pulled it out to make some handouts for my students..

Dave Hyong Hyong Hyong

i was bored of doing kitchen painting assignment..and just decided to paint Dave who was sitting beside.


it was like 1 minute sketch and 8~10 minute painting.
He moved after that..

4 armed humanoid creatures and a gesture

We're having so much fun in lifedrawing class.. creatures are always fun to draw. I think it's a guy thing..

Anyways, these are done in the big lifedrawing pad which is..36X24? can't remember exactly.

spent about 10~15 minutes, and....those mistakes..make me sigh. But it was design on the spot, which i only had my intuitive and visualizing skills to come up with the ideas. Hopefully that can be my excuse.

.

and i thought that gesture worked out quite intersting for 30 seconds

but it was very still-pose, i had to exaggerate alot

Cafe/hallway/subway/etc sketches

From the first year in school, I really forced myself to do these alot..as well as many character studies.

I use about 5 sketchbooks in a term on top of school works and 3 hours of lifedrawing 7 times a week. And it's actually 9 times now..

Anyways..ya this is the reason of my hand injury, as well as not taking too much attention to my health. But it can be avoided doing proper stretch and exercise. I've been going to Athletic Therapy Centre these days, and it's alot of help.

Quick Sketches(from life)

2 minute character-lifedrawing sketches i did in Emslie's class.

Character design class with Peter this year is my favourite class so far.

So many things i'm learning and so much improvements i'm having in his class.

This exercise gave me great experience making character out of life, and sometimes i was lucky enough to see him drawing gestures by his side.

But really ya, drawing 2 figures in 2 minutes is very hard. Lot of mistakes are too obviously visible.

gotta draw more!
