The greatest WordPress.com site in all the land! July 27, 2013 / vanessaparkinson. Here are the 2 self portraits I have done so far which follow a few preliminary drawings. Each one was done sitting in front of a mirror and both are far better than I anticipated they would be! 1 A4 Conte crayons. 2 A4 HB pencil. Which drawing material produced the best results – why? Does your self portrait look like you? My first thought when standing back from 2. was that it looks like my Aunt, who in turn I am tol...

Life Drawing – Mike again. To measure or not to measure? Here are the latest based on Mike again and the second will be in the next post because I can’t seem to post 2 photos in one post using my IPad. I started with trying to use chalk to show form and then drew in more detail. I really struggled with showi...

The marathon ends … Day 3 life drawing Chloe | vanessaparkinson
https://vanessaparkinson.wordpress.com/2013/07/22/the-marathon-ends-life-drawing-chloe
The greatest WordPress.com site in all the land! July 22, 2013 / vanessaparkinson. The marathon ends … Day 3 life drawing Chloe. 3rd and final day of Life Drawing Summer School. Tutor Cindy, model Chloe. Several quick warm up exercises started the session, to try to loosen us up. This first one was done without looking at the paper and I think it has captured the pose. A2 charcoal and pencil – we had 5 minutes for each. I am quite pleased with both, the negative space really helped in the second one.

On the hottest day of the year so far I did a 5 hour portrait workshop with Scott – whose life drawing workshop I attended back in September . A2 I really liked this approach. 1 Initial quick pencil sketch. 2 Map out the shadows/light areas – drawing round the areas with a light pencil line to establish the shape. 3 Put in the tones. 5 Draw back into the piece. Fill in your...

The greatest WordPress.com site in all the land! July 22, 2013 / vanessaparkinson. The marathon continues … Day 2 life drawing Steve. Life Drawing Summer School – Tutor Sue, model Steve. Once again a similar day of differing poses and timings in order to become familiar with drawing Steve. The afternoon was a long pose for which I once again used acrylics. I applied the acrylics too heavily on the legs in this piece but gradually started to get better control of the medium. Cynthia / Jul 22 2013 2:44 pm.
