these are from the workshop at the mission cultural center. great models always! not without flaws, but overall i'm happy with them.

chris who has such a sculpted physique, he is a walking

interesting model - very pale hair and
eyebrows...interesting face. |
this one i did some time ago at the gallery girls costume workshop..although i had a pretty good night, i felt a little hobbled by the drawing tool i had on hand. lately i have been keen on the lyra water soluble 9B graphite stick for my drawing needs. they are thick and soft so a great range of value can be easily reached, and large areas of paper are easily covered. similar to charcoal really, but less brittle. anyhow, on the eve of this workshop, i ran to the store and grabbed what i thought was just that. however, it turns out what i grabbed a 'normal' 9B graphite, which was significantly harder. as a result, i had to work much harder to get the value i was expecting, and my drawings turned out less than i had hoped for. still, they are decent studies, and i have been working a couple of these into paintings. i will post them later when i'm done and if they don't suck.
