Some Design Work



Here is a poster I recently designed for a recital.  I liked this painting in this postcard design so much that I did a painting of it for myself.  I would like to credit the original artist, but I don't know who painted it.  If anyone knows please let me know!

New Drawings from The Art Student's League

10 minute gesture
Here are some various 1 minute gestures, 10 minute poses, 20 minute poses, and sustained poses in my June class that I took from Leonard Gervits of the Art Students League of New York.

20 minute pose

For this 20 minute pose, I started over rather than re-working the image above more.

I did the same for this drawing.  

These were 2 minute gesture drawings.

These three drawings were each 20 minute poses.  I liked having the freedom to come back to the same pose three different times and alter things on a fresh sheet of newsprint each time rather than erasing away and trying to rework from the original image.  I liked different parts of each and I found it nice to do everything I could in only 20 minutes.

I am excited about the looseness of the edges in this drawing.
