More sketching. I like just doing different angles on the face and just portions of it.

Class sketch. My instructor is on to my me now, he wants me to adjust my graphic shading style for something more classical. Damn! I was enjoying my speed.

Switched up this one and used conte pencil, I love conte and enjoyed the freedom I showed in this drawing. I left the sketches around it just to give a feel for the page I was working on.

Really quick sketch I did of the lighthouse in Toco, took a little trip with my buddies to ease my mind and prepare us a group for the work ahead. It is rough and it shows my impatience and lack of skill in landscape art.

I always like to draw these cutaway style sketches, I think it is more interesting to look at by providing mystery.

I need to practice my portrait making skills.

I hope to some day play some elaborate costume with a bird’s head and a really long beak. In fact I do not mind playing King Costume.

Another drawing from class. I need to work on making my feet smaller. DAMN YOU MANGA!

Quick sketch as I continue to experiment with using paint ( real pain, not computer paint). Carnival coming up so I am getting into that mood. Ithe traditional characters.

Class sketch of a fewllow class mate.

This week our assignment for design illustration looks at denim, before doing the real croquis for it I did this drawing to loosen up.

Leg sketch, it is a slow day. Getting re acquainted with my new times.
