Drawing Progress

(WARNING!  NUDE SKETCHES ALERT!  You know, if that kind of thing bothers you…..)

I’ve been in school for a year now and a part of me wishes that I had been posting more of my work so I could really see my progress at a glance.  However, instead of working on homework, I’m posting my homework on my blog.  Right now I’m working on a vector portrait of Emily Blunt.  I didn’t realize what a crappy resource photo I was using until I was halfway through because I really had no idea what I was doing when I started.  It’s due next Thursday and I will ABSOLUTELY be posting that.  

Progress.  

Here is an example from my first figure drawing class that I took last summer.  I was very proud of this sketch. 

 

I’m currently taking an anatomy class where we use models and reference material to study essentially surface anatomy: bones and muscles that provide key landmarks when drawing the human figure.  Here are some examples of my most recent stuff.  

 

 

Whenever I’ve finished labeling whatever part we’re studying, I’ve found that I like to practice shading by drawing butts.  My sketch pages are littered with butt sketches.  A student who sits next to me commented on it.

Him: “You like drawing butts, eh?”

Me: “It’s true.”

Him: “Ah. Haha.  Butts.  That’s a funny word.”
