Let's skip the usual gestures, shall we

This was the first drawing of the evening but, as usual, I didn't really get going until the second half of the night.  I have got to get over that. 

Deep shadows

Until the last 90 seconds this one was a lost cause.  I had to see what another artist was doing for me to kick it into gear and take the drawing seriously.  I think it may be my favorite of the night.

Barely

Our model had a tough time staying awake during this one.  It's been so hot here that I think he just got too relaxed.  It happens.

Lookin' a bit grumpy

Hey, it ain't easy sitting around while a bunch of artists treat you like a mannequin.  All the more reason to appreciate our models.

Sorrow

I was channeling one of my all time favorite drawings while sketching this.  It is a piece by Harvey Dunn, a little study that is hanging at a friend's house.  And no, I didn't even come close to the exquisite beauty of that drawing but that doesn't mean I wasn't trying.

Gestures

Linear

Sometimes I just like lines.
