New Sketch Book

Got a new sketchbook on Sunday and have been having fun filling up it's pages. The first one is my wife's cousin Alitza, we where at my wife's other cousin's wife's birthday bash. The boy on the tractor is Collin and it's a photo of him from my phone. I was all over the place with it and really don't want to draw from photos anymore. The other one is from work and I was sketching parts of the building at work and people outside waiting for their car to get out of impound. The last one is a day old memory sketch of a hawk I saw at work. I'm proud of this one for it shows I'm getting better at making marks with a pen.

Enjoy!

Memory Sketch

Todays doodle is a memory sketch. I work for an auto auction and on auction day i drive the cars. This lets me see some of the best characters. This guy was wearing a hawaiian shirt and when he talked made some of the best facial expressions. the first is from lunch today the second when I got home because I felt I could do better. I still think this could be better but to stick with my goal of a sketch a day, it will have to do.

Memory sketch

Here's today's memory sketch. This fellow was at the grocery store on Tuesday but I really didn't get the chance till today at lunch to draw him. Theres some parts that could be better and parts I like but the important thing for these memory sketches is to focus on one or two details about the person and then exaggerate them. The other is to see the person as a shape and draw the shape first and the third thing is well to have fun.

Memory Sketch

I did this one at lunch time from staring at the Culver's car hop that was bringing out peoples order's. I had trouble with his lips. The guy had really thin lips but I could not visualize how to draw them so I came up with these instead. I also noticed I had drawn his thumb on the wrong side of his hand as I was getting ready to scan it, so I had to fix that. Over all I would say I much better memory sketch then from yesterday.






Enjoy!

memory sketch

I know I said I would have a hundred heads drawn and posted before march but that didn't happen. So not to dwell in the past but be conscious of the moment. I have a memory sketch I did at lunch today. This guy was walking down the street from the Burger joint I was at.
