Selfies from Sketchbook Skool

Here are more of my "selfies."  First is done from life, in a mirror.

Next is done from an iPad photo.

Next is a contour sketch, where my pen is not lifted from the paper.

Finally, here is a composite of the above.

Sketchbook Skool Selfie

Sketchbook Skool is unrelenting!  This week we are doing self-portraits.  Here's my second one, done in pencil.  I am supposed to several more before Friday.  Yikes!

Fast and Slow

This is the second assignment in Sketchbook Skool's 1st Klass on "Seeing."  It's a fast and slow technique: I did a one-minute wash to establish shape and design, then finished with a detailed pen-and-ink drawing to give details.

Now on to week two: "Seeing Yourself."

Toast

I just started Danny Gregory's Sketchbook Skool . . . a gift from son Steve.  Our first assignment was to draw bread ???  Here's my shot at it.  Great fun . . . more later.
