When doodling in class is good.


Portrait Class No. 1
Time: 40 minutes

Right, so this is my first go at live digital painting. Basically, I got so bored in this portrait class I'm taking (for the mere three weeks I'm in Tallahassee) that I abandoned the sketchbook for the laptop. Goodbye sketchbook! I loved you.... ah, fuck it. I like the results of this.

One thing I have learned in drawing class though, through worrying about the process rather than the result is that I have several trends when it comes to drawing the figure.
- Small heads,
-Over musculature
-eyes too big, ears not far back enough.

When did this develop? How did I not notice? Probably from drawing from memory so long I forgot what a real person looked like.

These sketches I did later on, after class and are from memory... but they did take longer than my usual sweeping-around-until-it-looks-kinda-right sketches. Also am working on creating more dynamic figures, studying anatomy, etc.
