This N That - Ham Samwich

This post was brought to you by This N That in Brooklyn. Our model on this night was none other than the witty, and hilarious Ham Samwich. I'm not gonna lie, Ham was a bit of a challenge. I really wanted to do her tongue and cheek attitude justice! Hopefully it came through in the sketches.

Figure Drawings

From Spring Street Studio and the Art Students League. Your honest feedback is most welcome.

This N' That - John Jones

Here's some sketches from This N' That in Brooklyn. I believe the organizer Leslie Van Stelten mentioned that all the proceeds go towards a local LGBT youth center. Its a brilliant idea-- take drawings from a drink and draw, put them in a collective art show, raffle them off, and give all the proceeds to the LGBT youth center.

*bootylicious*

Spring Street Figure Drawing

Alas--A 40 minute pose! Yay! Now that I'm looking at it, the head looks a bit large, not actually sure why I'm having that problem these days. I need a better lighting setup  :p

Summer Fun!

Went back over some old sketches with more color, just in time for summer ! :D

Also, two new sketchbook sketches! The first is another subway stealth sketch and the other is a character I'm working on.

Mini Painting

Giving these as gifts lately. I've got one more of these things in the works, so stay tuned ! :D

Mini Subway Stealth Sketches!

 How do these folks ALWAYS know when I'm drawing them?!?!?

A puffed bird.

Spring Street Studio

Found a wonderful studio on Spring and Lafayette that has drawing workshops 6 days a week! Great practice at a great price and wonderful friendly folks too!

Sketch Night at the Society of Ilustrators

Boy do these folks have a lot of gorgeous amazing artwork under one roof! I saw a charles gibson! I'll have to go back and take a better look at the art, because tonight was mostly about dusting myself off and getting back into the swing of things after 7 days of cross country road trip maddness (pictures to come). Note to self-- need to start exploring color. :p
