Hi Ian! Never heard of him, I’ll look him up! The only artists (old masters) that I know of that are famous for their ink work is Zorn and Charles Dana. If you know some more, feel free to share. In that drawing you mentioned I was just trying to apply what I learned from Chris Legaspi.
@Aj thank you so much!
For today I decided to study some hair styles. My visual library of hair is quite weak. When I practice drawing from imagination all my heads are bald 👨🦲 – i would like to change that!
Slow day today. Lost a little bit of steam, I think because I keep comparing myself to others. Which is dumb, but I can’t help it. Also, felt pretty tired today.
Anyway, wrote down some notes on Steve Hustons course. Found a really cool pattern/rhythms with the cheek bones, the muzzle and the chin. It’s almost like I can draw a big circle for the cranium, which half of it turns into the cheek bones, halfway through each side if I draw an enlongated circle I find the muzzle and the same thing for the chin. With only that I can find all the other measurements/placements that I need for building the face (I guess).
Thanks Ian!
This is my sketch for this Sunday. It’s a portrait of Jonas, a character from Dark.
p.s: I made a post prior to this one from Saturday’s sketches, but I forgot that uploading more than one image requires review so it will be out of order 😅

Hi Alex! Love the mileage you’re getting with the studies! Gestures will definetely get better as time goes on. If you haven’t yet, maybe take a look at Glenn Vilppu’s lessons on gesture drawing. Try to capture the forms wrapping around and changing direction, I think that could bring a lot of life and 3 dimensionality to your gestures.
Keep ’em coming!

@Myriam Thank you! Haha, yeah I noticed way too late 🙂
For today we have something a little bit different. I wanted to do another Draw This In Your Style challenge and this was the first one that I saw while browsing the hashtag #dtiys. Definitely something way different than what I’m used to, so I thought it would be fun to give it a shot.
On the left is my version, on the right is the original.
p.s: almost didn’t make it for the day! had to work later than usual (one of the downsides of working from home). it’s currently 4am. thank god it’s friday 🙂

Hi Carlise! Great job with these, I can really feel the form in the last one. Keep it up!
Hi Myriam! That last one… wow… just… wow! I love the composition, the contrast around the face, the subtle gradient going out and the softness with the shading. Great work!
p.s: thanks for checking out my IG haha
Hi Deborah. Thank you! I have taken your advice and did a sketch before going in with ink, and I think it helped a lot! I fixed many mistakes early on.
This was for a challenge over on instagram called Draw This In Your Style. Did a lot of different sketches to plan the composition/angle and to get the proportions and facial structure correct. Definitely helped a lot!
