For some reason I always seem to choose my studio classes to be bright and early at 8:30 in the morning. Without some caffeine, my drawings tend to be sluggish and completely unsatisfying. I have a love-hate relationship with charcoal so I generally go with pencil work when I can get away with it.

Here are a few more polished drawings done during studio time (by the way it was a pain and a half to try to document something that’s atleast 18×24).

And some weekly assignments:

Facial proportion study

Finalized portrait study

Finalized clothed figure study

I’ll be continuing life drawing this summer with the playful models of Dr. Sketchy’s and some open classes at OCAD. Oh and a convenient “volunteer” model, wink.
