September 29 - Main Library

Still having some issues with perspective but I think I'm starting to get it...sort of anyway..

Also I attempted to draw a couple of times while standing up since some people wouldn't stand still that long...that didn't turn out too great. I'll keep trying though.

Homework 1

I'm not sure if I did this right..but uh yea here is my homework

This first one is of someone doing a cartwheel. It was a bit hard and it didn't really come out how I hoped.

This is of a person jumping. I think I could've done a bit more work on this one as well. You can ignore the scribbled out one..I messed up.


I actually kinda like this one and it is of a person swinging. Again please ignore my scribbled out mess up.

September 27 - Student Choice - CCAD Campus

Sadly the only place I could get myself to on Monday was CCAD. I needed to kill two birds with one stone and manage to get homework done and my sketches done without having to use a lot of gas..so CCAD it was.

I got there and realized that I awesomely left my glasses at home...so my drawings are not as detailed as I would hope for. I can still see decently without my glasses but if someone is far away it's still quite a task to see anything but blurry blobs...
The first drawing is a bit odd...the person sitting in the chair is way too...tall..I started drawing from the bottom rather than the top so I think that's what did me in.

As for this one..ignore the scribble in the corner..it is where I started to draw but messed up...I still need to work on perspective.
Again there is a little scribbled out thing on this page as well..where I messed up..

That's it. I plan on scanning in my homework later tonight : )

September 22 - Columbus State

So the weather turn on Wednesday was not fun at all. Having to stay inside with a bell and horribly loud intercom going off every 15 minutes was not my ideal way to spend the last hour of class...I did draw some people's faces though to practice expression and what not. I'm still working on hands though..
This was before the storm started. This was one of the little outdoor food things.
This was also before the weather got bad. You can see I attempted to draw hands on the top drawing and the expression as well. The bottom two were me attempting to draw people in motion. Still not turning out how I would like them to.


And finally was when I was stuck inside. I need to work on perspective a little...

September 20 - Mojoe Lounge/Goodale Park

These drawings are late again : ( I'm terribly sorry for two times in a row. I came home early from class today with the full intention of scanning them and found out that my power was out...I actually just got my power back..But yea..that sounds like a bunch of excuses..I'm going to start scanning my drawings the same day now ha ha....

But besides that..I didn't draw many people on Monday..mostly squirrels and a dog...and then I couldn't tear my eyes away from a tennis "match" going on..ha ha...Tennis is like trying to draw dancers...very hard. I was kinda far away cause I didn't want to get super close and just stare intensely at the people playing and draw them...



And for some giggles the picture above is the first squirrel I tried to draw. Unlike the others ones it wouldn't hold still so I tried to draw it from what I had managed to see before it ran up a tree. It didn't quite work out and just turned into what looks like a horrible mix of a squirrel and a horse or maybe a dog..

September 15 - Ballet Met

Oh these drawings are pretty late...I totally forgot what day it was. I'm sorry they're not up before 6pm..but ah...here they are.

Besides that doing these was hard...I now know drawing dancers is not my forte. But I do like to think that I kinda got the hang of it towards the end...

September 13 - Student Choice - Five Guys Burgers and Fries

I had next to no time to actually get somewhere awesome today but the good thing is..I worked today! That meant I had a little bit of time after work in which I could sit down and scare away customers by staring at them and drawing. Amazing!

It made me realize that people eat really fast and you can be drawing them one second and the next they're up and leaving...so it was interesting to say the least. But it also means unfortunately I didn't have many drawings that I liked. I also was trying something different to be able to tell the male figures from female figures..not sure if it worked out how I liked though

.

September 8 - North Market

I actually almost forgot to upload these. That would've been bad.

Not many out of this batch I liked much, sadly. I should've moved around a bit more.

These scans might not be that great either..my scanner has decided to act like a dinosaur even though it's only a year old and just ruin everything scanning and printing wise.

I am not the best at drawing cars but this guy sat outside in his car for a hour or so...kinda so..I drew him..
And while waiting for someone else to come around I drew these awesome birds..okay my drawings of them are not that awesome but the birds themselves were. They would just come really close and stay around in the same area until something scared them....the snake thing was not something that was actually there though..

September 1 - The Quad

So I realized today that I have a hard time grasping the concept of gesture drawing. I've seen different ways of doing it and I wasn't really sure the way I needed to do it so I'm not entirely happy with the drawings from this class but I think I understand a bit more what I need to do. Or at least it's a small step in the right direction.

So this first drawing was before I decided to change the way I was drawing, after getting some feedback from Patrick. Every time I tried to draw someone they were sitting behind one of the trees...

All I have to say is her arms look weird. She kept moving them every few seconds..


And this last one..I don't have much to say about.

I attempted to draw people walking but that didn't turn out so well. They looked stiff and unnatural. I'll keep trying with that though and hopefully I'll figure out a good way to do it.
