Hi.. Erm I’m really embarrassed about leaving without saying anything like that.
I would be the worst person to do a regularly updating webcomic or something like that. I really am the worst – I’m so sorry for my rudeness.
Umm it kind of got harder to come and post because I was embarrassed about my [...]

This is a quick 5 minute watercolour of the view from my window.
It’s pretty light and its not really clear what it’s showing (and the scan changed the colours a lot, so you can’t see much of the clouds for example). It was actually early sunset when I painted it, but you really wouldn’t be able to tell [...]

Ahh I’m awful at updating. Here’s a try at some skulls from memory (they’re not very correct – especially cheekbones). We’ve been studying skulls in art at school, which is very interesting :¬)

Quick (very haha) start on maybe a study of a painting by David Curtis called ’A high point above dale house’. I don’t know much about this artist but I found the images saved in my reference folder.. decided to paint it. Except it looks pretty ineffectual as a study right now, as I spent only 5 minutes [...]

Hello again! More from life drawing class. I actually fit the head in this time, but this time the scanner cut it off
Drew same pose and model as a few months ago . If you remember it, do you think I’ve improved a bit? I don’t know.. I got the feet in this time, but ran out of room for the head.
Sorry for the lack of posting.. really am (don’t kick me out haha :P )
I’m having..lots [...]

I’ma bit worried I’ve picked the wrong a levels. I’m not that strong in maths and I don’t find it interesting… It is a good qualification to have, but I don’t like doing it every day.

I envy those people who can do digital speedpaints. I’m trying to paint from a photo, but I’m taking a long time to get it right first of all. I’ll keep working on it. Picking the right colours is challenging; I reverted to doing a grayscale underdrawing ish thingy… My eyes are really watery and [...]

Closest leg especially looks a bit short.. because I didn’t finish off the foot?
I’m really sorry for my lack of posts.. I can see it’s been quite quiet. I went to France Back to school now, but I’ll try to post every day.
Congratulations new admins
