Ceramics/ glaze

The ceramic sculptures come out of the kiln today. I think mine turned out alright, though the colours look different compared to what I was expecting.
In other words, the dark colours makes it look a bit like Scar from the lion king.

All I have to do now, is to attach a base to it, because it's a bit unbalanced.

Study of thighs

Done with graphite, watercolour and felt tip markers on paper.

Photography sketches

Here are some concept drawings for my photography assessment.

They are a bit rough, but I was focusing more on composition and framing of the pictures.

More stuff

I forgot to upload these ones.
They look similar because I was trying to draw the same pose in different styles.

Life drawing

Yesterday, in class, a model came in for us to draw.

First we did 10 1 minute drawings in charcoal, then 5 2 minute drawings in charcoal. After that we did 2 detailed drawings, 20 minutes each in coloured oil sticks.

(Sorry, but my phone keeps flipping and rearranging the pictures in it's own order.)

Sculptures

When I'm not drawing, I'm doing some other type of art such as ceramics.

I've been in the ceramics building for the last few days slaving over a sculpture.

The first image is of a 15cm test figure.
The second one is of the final 45cm figure. All thats left now is to fire it in the Kiln and paint it.

King of cups

I was thinking about designing my own Tarot card set, starting with the minor arcania.  The first card that I started on was the King of cups.

inked lines

Final result



Also, while I was colouring in the fabric, I found a really cool effect.  So the next picture is just for kicks.

Drawing HW

edit: images flipped


My homework was to do 10 contour and 10 gesture drawings. Honestly I have no idea what the difference was, either way I did 20 drawings in total.

The pictures are of objects found in my room and were drawn with ink and charcoal. Also they start to get more 'abstract' when I got tired.
