Figure Drawing Dump

In keeping with various artistic resolutions, I’ve been making an effort to drag myself back to figure drawing on a weekly basis this year. So far so (semi-)good!

Monday Sketchdump

In honor of completing my story for Cartozia #3 last week, I decided to do a little warm-up sketch of my two protagonists on Sunday. Meet Grumley and Bumley, cantankerous fishermen at large. I’ve also been trying to get back into the habit of doing warm-up sketches on a more regular basis, so here are … Continue reading Monday Sketchdump

Figure Drawing – November

Reasons Periscope Studio is The Best Place #347: monthly figure drawing sessions! Gotta get back into that habit of doing this regularly. I really felt a difference by the end of the session.

Feet Forever

Following up my 100 hands post from a while back with 100 feet! Excited to already feel the blunt repetitive force of these seeping into my regular drawing. Practicing is the coolest, you guys.

Odds and Sods

Oh blogitty blog how I’ve been neglecting you… For those that aren’t aware, I’m in California for the next month churning out the latest issue of Baggywrinkles and working on some other secret comics projects. Comics vacation, if you will. Freelance jobs have kept me pretty busy, so here’s a bundle of stuff from that … Continue reading Odds and Sods
