Latest portrait


This is the latest portrait I'm working on of my niece. It's exciting when the contours of a drawing show a strong likeness to the person. So far, this one is a success!

Sketchbook and Joe Weatherly Workshop

A few weeks back, I had a the opportunity to take an animal drawing workshop with Joe Weatherly through my college, the Academy of Art University. It was a great two days that I would readily do again. In fact, I am considering a season pass to the Oakland and San Francisco zoos, so I can get more practice in.

Here are some scans from my sketchbook. Three of Joe Weatherly's drawings are included (two are in blue pen). Some drawings are from the zoo and others are from the Oakland Museum where the animals are taxidermically arranged in glass cases (much easier to study because they...don't move).
