Hey Kids!! Comics!!

When we were in high school, most of the art kids wanted to draw comics. We thought it would be so cool, if any of us got into the industry. Most of us parted ways after high school. Some got married, others ended up working in the factories and restaurants, but all gave up on the silly dream. In looking back at our work, I remember more the friendships than the awful images we created.

Ashes

Well…I guess this is one way to end a series or body of work.  First off I would like to apologize to anyone affected or traumatized by fire, it just felt like good closure to get rid of the weight of these drawings by turning some of them into ashes. Please don’t think that I’m […]

Figure Drawing – 5-25-2011

Notes: Atlanta Artists Center, Charcoal on Newsprint, which I think will be my main medium from now on.  It’s simple and affordable, with a good texture.

Figure Drawing – 5-18-2011 – Atlanta Artists Center

Notes: Atlanta Artists Center.  Charcoal on newsprint.  Male model reminded me of Perseus from Greek mythology.  As for the drawings, like a ballplayer, I had an off night tonight, maybe going something like 2 for 4, had other things on my mind.

Figure Drawing – 4-20-2011 – Atlanta Artists Center

Notes: Some quick sketches from tonight’s figure drawing session.  Not really a class, but just time to sit and draw, reevaluate where you are in life.  I don’t know how to do PHP coding, I don’t know marketing strategies, I don’t know a bunch of things that you can put down on a fake resume.  […]

Art in Progress: Misa

…I guess I’m back…forgot how much I missed it, just sitting on the floor listening to music and drawing, not really thinking of the image itself, just everything that surrounds it…

Portfolio

The slight changes to the site are to better accommodate the iPad (and most of my gadgets) as a presentation device for my artwork and photo portfolio.  The always free and awesome WordPress and various plugins will have to do until I figure out some code for swipe based navigation.  Apple’s lack of Flash support is one of […]

Figure Drawing – 1-5-2011 – Atlanta Artists Center

Notes: Some quick drawings from tonight.  I actually prefer drawing from male models.  Reason there hasn’t been hardly any postings featuring them is because every single session I’ve been to has had female models.  Harsh lighting on the male physique works better.  Even if the form isn’t as physically fit as an athlete, you will usually […]

Figure Drawing – 11-10-2010 – Atlanta Artists Center

Notes: Charcoal on Canson Ingres. 40min.  I’m rusty, haven’t drawn from life in a while.  Most of my figure drawings I still do while sitting on the floor and peering up at the model on an elevated stand.  This can create some difficult angles to render, but the advantage is that you can be mobile, while everyone […]
