A lot of drawings

Just think I'd update again.
Have been drawing this whole evening, it was really nice to do something of my own again, instead of the small assignment we have to do for school.

I really have to let go of my perfectionism, because I notice when I doodle more, just for the fun of it and there's not so much pressure, better results come out..

And I found a nice 'Figure & Gesture drawing" website, so that's really nice, it helps with practicing.

The photos aren't really great, maybe I'm going to scan the drawings again tomorrow and reload them.

Hope you like me doodling ;) Ow and it's my birthday since 18 minutes ago, haha.
Don't have much plans, but it will probably be fun. Just going shopping for a bit and get some stuff for my new bird Pidri :).

Figure drawing

*Sometimes blogspot doesn't understand that I turned pictures, this is happening in this message. Also it doesn't understand sometimes that text doesn't belong with some pictures but needs to be at another position. My apologies for those malfunctions.*


These are the results of figure drawing last semester.
I do think they are sketches, mostly, but I like the idea of coloring some parts and leave other parts blanco. And I really like the colors.
In real life they probably do look better.

I want to put more effort into it and work on the colors. Elaborate it.
My style finally begins to take shape and it becomes clear what I actually want.
Straight lines and colors, more simplicity. Light subjects and more air to it.
I'd like that.





I actually wanted to add a peacock to this scene, but I didn't come to that yet.















In these drawings I liked to only add colors to the skirt, so this got more attention.

Drawing studies

This year in drawing studies we can decide for ourselves what we want to do. You can choose for yourself what you want to practice.
So that's kind of fun. We do need a goal. At this moment I have to say that I don't really have a very clear goal, but I want to get better and I want to develop my own style. In these studies I'd like to concentrate on which material I like to use best, and I want to do better at anatomy and the lightning.
I think that's pretty much it for now.
I wanted to show my results untill now. I'm especially happy with the drawings I made today.

First few lessons :














Best one of past week :



Today :





I'm so happy with this one!!! I'm kind of proud the colors turned out so well and the anatomy is very accurate :)



I did spend more time on this one, but I don't think this one is as good as the one above..

Just wanted to show you, hope you liked it.
