Life drawing Dump







So i am preparing for a life drawing portfolio tomorrow and I thought I would share with the world some of the stuff thats in there.

Of course there are gestures, but more recently we have been doing facial gestures. 
There is also some blind contours, Model drawings in watercolour and ink and Box drawings. 
Here I shall only show you the faces, model drawings and blind contours... as they are the only things i kind of like doing and like to think Im not too shabby at them either 8D

All our exercises come from a bloke named Nicolaides who wrote a book called 'The natural way to Draw' Its reccomended for any art student...


Painting



Art dump again! Here is a couple of examples of tone and warm and cool exercises. 
The medium is Oil paint 8D
The top painting is of an egg at a wierd angle - this is not the best example of warm and cool exercise ... and the yellow smudge... i have no idea how that got there..
The shapes are a little off on the jug painting mainly because there was a dilema that the teaches kept telling me my white was not white enough. Despite putting white straight from the tub on the painting it was still not white enough. Everyone later on discovered that the white paint we had was not 'Titanium white' after all - but an offwhite close to grey,... once again the students of MTM were ripped off....
