Here's Laura Hughes from last night's Go Figure. We didn't have as good of a turnout as usual, but we still had enough people, and Laura was a cool model. This was a 25 minute pose- done with a brown colored pencil.
This is Carla from last night's Go Figure. She had an interesting face- she looked confused, angry, disturbed, and happy all in the same pose. She kept changing her expression, but it was interesting to draw.
These are two preliminary sketches of Zhang Ziyi for a painting commission I'm doing for "Faces and Names". I e-mailed them the sketches and they liked the second one better- so that's the one I'm doing. When will it be done? That's the question. Hopefully before the end of the month so I can pay the rent. It's going to be a dimensional oil painting - 14" x 17". I'll post it when I'm done.
Last night Lady J made her triumphant return to "Go Figure" as an evil Annette Funicello. We started out with surf music (Dick Dale, etc.) but then moved on to some David Lynch soundtracks to darken the mood. She was great as usual with an overwhelming presence and emotion. This drawing was done with a Derwent black colored pencil.
Here's some drawings of Larva from last night's "Go Figure" sessions. She was an amazing model, and interestingly, Cassandra's roommate, which I didn't know until the end of the night. She lives in LA most of the time, so we'll have to wait until next Spring to see her again.
