Soccer & Pool

In this blog, I don't just post the nice stuff. There would only be a couple entries if I did that.

I have time while RocketBoy is playing soccer or swimming to do a bit of sketching.

Sketching at Callenwolde


When I take my son to his Young Singers practices at Callenwolde Fine Art Center, I get some time to sketch while he's practicing.

It's a big empty room, generally, with not much to sketch. So, gestures from the mind...

Sketch Dump and Yet Another Drawing Book

Here's a few random sketches from the sketchbook.


These little pillow/sack drawings were inspired by Han Drawn's blog, who is an extremely talented art student.Link



Sketches of kids at the Callenwolde Fine Art Center, and a couple legs drawn from scratch.
I picked up a really good anatomy book, "Human Anatomy Made Amazingly Easy" by C. Hart. I have several drawing anatomy books, but for some reason, this one really clicked. I actually read it cover to cover, which I don't think I've ever done. I think the best part is that I really started thinking about the skeletal structure and how that effects the outward appearance.

Trying to draw a cartoonized version of myself.
