Did a figure drawing class last week. It was a lot of fun. I didn't like any of my 1 or 5 minute drawings, but here's the 15 and 20 minutes paintings. Pretty rough, but I like what I managed in a short time.
Black and white painting of a white woman from the neck up turned three quarters to face the viewer. She is wearing a necklace and dark lipstick and has dark hair.
I got interrupted and couldn't quite finish this one. I'm really happy with the face texture and eyes, but the hair needed some more time. #painting #portrait #sketch
It’s not simply doing this, or doing it without congressional approval, or doing it without explanation of risks, or doing it without declaration of war, or doing it on behalf of an ally mid-genocide. It’s the fickleness that suggests what’s to come.
Rule, war, death by his whim.
Small black and white painting of a woman from the neck up. A beam of light us falling across the page.
Wanted to try some smaller paintings. This is on the same size page as the others divided in 9 sections. I also liked how the light was hitting the page. #painting #art #portrait
Black and white painting of a woman in a one piece lingerie made of lace with a deep neckline. She is also wearing a sheer wrap around her waist. She has shoulder length blond hair that is falling in front of her face. The painting ends just above her knees.
Here's an attempt painting more of the body. I'm happy with it. Particularly how the hair covers her face. #art #painting #portrait
Black and white painting of a woman from the shoulders up leaning her head back over some boards. There is a flower in her hair.
I like all the parts of this one, but they don't quite fit together for me. I think it's mostly that I messed up the head shape. #art #portrait #painting
Black and white painting of a long haired cat in profile. Painted in an old board with the bottom corners cut off.
Another try painting on wood. This is the same fence board but with gesso. Way easier to paint on, but it's definitely a different feel. #art #painting #cat
Black and white painting h if a woman from the neck up looking forward. Painted on an old, weathered piece of wood.
I was trying out different surfaces. This is an old fence board with no undercoat at all. I like the result, but painting directly on something so absorbent was a huge pain. #art #portrait #painting
Black and white painting of a doberman pinscher in profile from the neck up. Ears not cropped. Wearing a collar and a shirt of some sort that is mostly cut off.
Here's one of my dog Groose who recently passed away. I painted it a while ago, and his snout was longer that it looks here (ran out of room), so I'll probably do a new one soon to hang up. #painting #dog #doberman #art
the thing about every single tech company is, they don't make money, they just use other people's cash to burn down whatever market they operate in so they can reign over the ashes
Black and white painting of a woman with her eyes closed. Wearing a headband, earrings, heavy eye makeup, and dark lipstick.
This is the opposite page from the last one. Also painted on vacation. I don't like the overall image as much here, but I'm really happy with the rendering style. Also the camera brings out the warmth of the paper in an interesting way that isn't as visible in person. #art #painting #portrait
Black and white painting of a woman from the shoulders up. Her eyes are closed, and her hair is pulled back into 3 small buns. There are some stray brushstrokes on the page, and one in the top left looks like a tree branch and leaf. The painting is in a sketchbook, and a thumb is visible on the left holding the page in place.
I painted this one on vacation, and I love it. It has my favorite brushstrokes quality of any so far. I also really like how the extra shapes finish the image. #art #painting #portrait
Black and white painting of a woman wearing a sweater and resting her head on her hand.
I really like this one. The face is a bit flat, and the eyes are a bit uneven, but the feel of the brushstrokes is right where I want it. #art #painting #portrait
birds.
Black and white painting of a woman from the neck up with her hand touching her cheek.
Black and white painting of a person from the shoulders up leaning on their arm with their eyes closed.
Really happy with this one. Looking at it now, the hair is way more Wolverine-y than I remember though. #art #painting #portrait
This one is okay, but all I can see when I look at it is how I messed up the hat seam on the left side. #art #paintin #portrait
Black and white painting of a woman from the neck up
Another! I'm going to run out of things to say about these! #art #painting #portrait
Black and white painting of a man from the shoulders up
Another 1 hr portrait. I really like this one. #art #painting #portrait
Black and white painting of a woman from the neck up.
This is probably my favorite from the 1 hr portrait series. #art #painting #portrait
Black and white painting of a woman from the shoulders up
I like how visible the texture and brushstrokes are on this one. The hair needed more work, but it would have blown the 1 hr time limit to go into each braid. #art #portrait #painting
