photo update

Saturday it was the big day at my art school, it was the final judgement of the year. Since I am in second year now, this was very important because if you did not pass this one, you cannot continue to the third year. Luckily I passed it even though my teachers had some critiques.

I sketched some more things with charcoal for this day.

And finished some older works.

Oh and I bought a new wallet today, I really liked the colors of it. On the background you can see what drawing I am working on right now.

charcoal and other media

Judgement Day of art school is approaching again so I have been making new things! Else I would stand there empty-handed, that would be pretty bad I guess.

I have picked up charcoal again. You can work pretty fast with it, which is nice for a change. 

For this forest I used different types of media, ballpoint, marker and paint.

This was inspired by a circus, not that there was somebody there walking around like this though. 

Rough set-up for a new painting. 

And this kind of seems like a self-portrait. My skills with charcoal are not optimal yet :/

currently

trying out charcoal

working on this, it will be a larger drawing.

and my scarf is almost done!

charcoal drawings

Last drawing lesson I worked with charcoal. We collected pictures and then we had to draw them, enhancing some of the aspects. I chose the "darkness" of the pictures. The first drawing actually was not done, but I liked it too so I included this one as well.

before Judgement Day. ;D

intense lesson about lines

Yesterday I went to school for a drawing lesson (a lesson that takes up the whole day, yes). It was about drawing lines. First task was to draw tennis balls from life using charcoal. Charcoal is not my thing, but it went well I guess. We were only allowed to make lines and we had to keep the stick of charcoal on the paper all the time.

This makes me think of the Pepsi logo haha. Anyway, lots of lines. That was what the lesson was all about: linework.

These sheets were big too, these are all done on A1 paper. The biggest format I draw on is A2 .. o_o

Then we switched to a beach ball.

And a basket ball. Which got very deformed xD

Then did not understand the assignment well. We just had to make this:

I had to fold the papers because they were too big for my map. These lines should be horizontal but the fold distorts them.

And some verticals..

I guess this is abstract. I never do abstract lol

Last drawing we had to draw many lines and create something by making everything more black. It got so black that I needed to use white chalk. I felt like Jackson Pollock.

life drawing

I found some of my old academy work (like 3 years ago). How I miss the drawing lessons! XD
I just had to show them. I love life drawing.
