Inspiring Artists and Free Sketch

This week we had a free sketch.

We also talked about artists that inspire us

 what we liked about their art, including...

See you then!

Animal Gestures!

This week we focused on drawing animals!  

Jinny brought in a wide range of reference materials:

(Rhinohouse, Creaturebook, Pixelovely, elephantart)

We started by looking over a handout she made for us.  

The goal of the session was to capture the pose of the animal, 

focusing on larger shapes and working in.  Jinny put together a

 timed powerpoint for us to draw from. 

She also recommended "The Art of Animal Drawing" by Ken Hultgren, 

which goes into the skeletal structure of many animals.
