Seems ages since I posted anything, haven’t been painting much but have really got into sketching with a black pen, also it allows me to be a couch potato and still feel as though I’m doing something.Did this the other night while chilling with a glass of red, tried to get the impression of the light from the lamp, but didn’t get it as well as I would have liked.
Did this one last night, again with a glass of red in the other hand. Found the image on the back of an old magazine I found amongst my books, it’s an advert for Barbour jackets, and it just appealed to me, although I don’t think I’d get dressed up like this to go sketching.
Excellent drawings. I wish I could do as well with the human figure as you.
ReplyDeleteGreat drawings - I like the hatching. I am also proud to be an active couch potato!
ReplyDeleteReally like your drawings. They seem to have an organic feel to them.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous sketches Phil! I have to agree with David there, your drawings have a lot of organic feel to them. Almost like they could turn into classics instantly and something you never get tired of looking
ReplyDeleteVery nice. I love the way you capture texture with your cross hatching.
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of sketching with a glass of red by my side ... good tip ;) I think you've captured the lamplight very well in the first sketch, and the posture of the guy in Barbour is great.
ReplyDeleteI really like the glimpse of the cups and plates on the dresser, great sketches!
ReplyDeleteGreat sketches. I like your cross-hatching and composition on both sketches. You're making me feel guilty for sitting here on my iPad instead of with my sketchbook. Both like to fight for my attention. I love looking at other people' art as much as doing my own. Thanks for sharing.
