Anatomical Series

Here is what I have been working on in my drawing class. The skeleton was drawn from an actual human skeleton. I thought it was neat that we had an opportunity to do it from a real human skeleton.

Skeleton.

Three skulls different views.

I had a bit of a hard time starting this drawing. I started with the skull at the bottom right. It is a bit awkward. I was frustrated with the skull and was not looking forward to  drawing two more skulls.  Well I was so frustrated that I turned around the skull I was working and and drew the back view because as I told another classmate "I was tired of looking at his face!". My professor let me get away with it because she liked the shading. I was re-energized after not looking at the face of the skull for a brief period that I was actually happy about doing the last and final skull.

Muscle study. Incomplete.

This guy is harder than he looks. I had to start over on a different paper which was really frustrating. I kept at it though. I have hardly any shading done. I will update it when I complete it.

Fun Group Drawing Assignment

My drawing teacher gave us a fun and interesting drawing assignment. It was to be completed in class. She went around and gave each one of us a square. We were to draw what was on the square to scale on a much bigger paper. Some things you couldn't even tell what they were and others you could. We ended up doing two different ones and here are the results.

My drawing is the last one on the right at the bottom row. It is interesting to see how it all came together. This one is my favorite of the two.

This second one was more interesting. It did not fit well together as the other one did. We all wondered why it was. The first one was a painting and this one was a picture of two people a man and a woman from a magazine. We seemed to have a harder time on this one for some reason. My drawing on this one is on the second to bottom row the last drawing on the right(5th drawing from the left) if that makes more sense.

It was fun and even better to see everything come together to reveal the big picture which we did not know how it looked beforehand.

Painting and Drawing Classes

This semester I am taking a painting and a drawing class. I was intimidated at first about the painting class because I've done little of it. I went to class today and after sitting there listening to the syllabus I was put at ease. It did not seem as intimidating as I had previously thought.

I like the first out of class assignment that we have for my drawing class. We have to do twenty drawings with the same theme. Now I just have to think of what exactly I want to draw. I think this is a fun assignment and I am planning on documenting my progress with that. When I get my first one done I will post it here.
