Caricature – David

I don’t know what these are. I can’t tell if they’re cute or creepy either. It’s just what I was in the mood to draw at the sketchnight tonight. They oddly remind me of my friend Nate Bramble’s art style, only completely different. Check out his comic if you get a chance. Great stuff!

Start Slide Show with PicLens LiteUFO – digital sketch

Several of my friends from the Lubbock Sketch Club and from around town got together and pitched in to buy me a new drawing tablet to replace my old one that has been hurting my feelings for nigh on two years now. It was a complete surprise and a real blessing. Its a new Wacom Intuos 4 tablet. My old one was a 3. I didn’t even know they had 4’s out yet. Its pretty awesome, with a lot more short cut buttons and a touch ring that works as both a zoom, and can toggle through several other convenient options. Its really amazing.
Its been kind of rough month. But all of a sudden, I’m with a new laptop, with all new adobe suite, and a new drawing tablet. I’m really looking forward to diving 2010!
So this is my first official digital sketch with the new tablet. Amber is really into UFO’s and aliens right now, so I guess this drawing came out of that somehow. I think he’s cute. This was about an hour in Photoshop.
I hope everyone has a wonderful, blessed Christmas and New Years. Keep smiling!

Start Slide Show with PicLens Lite“Show me some of that Spanish dancing…”

Figure Drawing Group last night was good. My friend Jenn was the model, dressed as a Flamenco dancer. I wanted to keep the art loose so I grabbed my jar of dirty ink water and used it to do washes. I forgot my blow-dryer though so the washes weren’t as graceful as I would like. It was still fun to do. My thanks to Robert who’s running the figure drawing group now for keeping things interesting and keeping it going. Its much appreciated.

I got to hang out at the figure drawing group picnic this weekend. It was good brisket and brownies, and great company. We had our model Casey pose for us outside for a change. Clothed of course, don’t want to get the neighbors talking. It was fun. I always rush when I do figure drawing for some reason. I guess because I haven’t been in the routine of it for so long that I don’t feel comfortable like I used to. So I did this quick gray wash sketch and hung out the rest of the time. I think it turned out alright.
