    Hi New Masters Academy people!
    My good buddy Andres (who has an AMAZING 100 Day thread) suggested I come here and show some art.
    I’ll be sharing pages from various sketchbooks I’ve done since December of last year to now. A lot of it is general life drawing, figure drawing from sessions, practice pages, etc.

    Andres was nice enough to let me borrow his copy of Steve Huston’s Figure Drawing book last year. I read it throughout the Summer and began its exercises at the start of December. I’ve been working through it since. I’m currently in the Arms/Hands chapter.

    Hope everyone is keeping safe!

    The following pages are from two sketchbooks done in mid-December to January. Gestures from a few workshops ’round town.

    Aaaaaaaand finishing off with some general life drawing from a weekly group I’m part of. Well, they meet online now since you can’t have gatherings anymore.

    Second pic is a drunk self-portrait in a bar restroom. People were still out and about, no masks during this time in December. Both sketchbooks were small so mainly filled with journal entries, gestures from workshops, and the occasional guerilla life drawing.

    Cheers!

    These are super cool. Did you do them with pen or charcoal?

    Hola Pablo, thanks.

    The figure drawings are in pencil. The last two location ones are in pen.

    Hey Simon, haha don’t think I have a style, but thanks!

    For this week I will be sharing pages from a sketchbook dated January 12-Feb 15. The sketchbook is almost exclusively figure drawings from a bunch of sessions I was going to for the month.

    During this time, I began a class with Glenn Vilppu himself. It was a pleasure to talk to him, pick apart his brain, and have him show me a thing or two. I would bring Old Master books for him to look at. Despite studying him on my own, he still managed to make things clear and open my eyes to things I didn’t know before. I have a ton of pages from that class. I’ll share them next week.

    Also, in this sketchbook, I began ‘Chapter 4-Perspective’ off of Steve Huston’s book. One of the more difficult chapters. So yeah, lots studying and live drawing. Here are a few warm-ups.

    Wow this is very next level refined, the In all the more finished drawings the gesture only gets stronger! The live sketches of all the random people are so cool, really makes me want to try drawing from life more! And it must have been insane to talk to Glenn in person haha wow.
