Sketchbook Drawing and Digital Experiment

Experimenting with Paint 3D digital program

Playing with drawings and digital experiments: in Tony's class we do quick, timed drawings in order to warm up. I decided that I wanted to play and experiment with this one. I transferred a line drawing of this to my sketchbook. Then, I wanted to experiment with the line drawing without messing up the drawing in my sketchbook with something that I might not like. I did a really quick experiment with the line drawing by transferring it into digital. I have decided that I want to experiment some more before making final changes to my sketchbook drawing.

Sometimes You Want to Draw in Your Sketchbook

This was drawn freehand, but I did use two of my photos that I took years ago as reference for the shapes of the main flower and the cat.

Sometimes You Feel Like A Traditional Portrait, Sometimes You Don’t

Sometimes you feel like working on something more traditional.

SOMETIMES YOU FEEL LIKE A PORTRAIT - SOMETIMES YOU DON'T

Today I am posting a drawing that I did in Tony Pro's class at the Coppini Academy during art class. We were drawing from a live model.

Sometimes You Feel Like a Portrait

But, sometimes you feel like doing something a little different just to play and work with color.
