Some new drawings

Life has an annoying habit of getting in the way. So it is quite a while since my last post. Lots of things have been happening since then but today I am just going to post some drawings that I have done this past week.

The first is a long way from finished sketch of Jenny, one of our models. I refer you to some sketches I did of Jenny about a year ago. I like this new picture because I think it shows some progress.

Nude study of Jenny sketched 29 October 2007

What follows are some studies I did after visiting the Collingwood Children’s Farm. The sheep were really good value because they just stood and held a pose for quite long periods - as long as no-one come around with food.

Another study of a sheep.

This is the final one for today it’s another study of a sheep.

My life is so full of firsts that I marvel at it all, my first ever drawing of a duck, a sheep, a pigeon. I’ve also had a go at some cows, pigs, goats and chooks - chooks are very difficult mainly because they never stay still and sheep are probably the easiest because they do, actually cows are good that way too.

I have much to write about and pictures to share - so it won’t be as long until the next post - promise.
Logging off, Jools
