today i painted from the same photo than yesterday with gouache. i like more working with oils but anyway one has to try every possible media. i made the drawing lines after i painted with a black flat derwent pencil. it's about 35x50cm so i had to scan it in three parts the join them to make only one piece. again i changed the colours and the background.

yesterday i did this drawing from a photo in a magazine. I only took the pose of the person, but change it a lot. suppressed the background and made another one up. the black trousers changed into the white of the paper, looks completely different. for all the (c) subject i even hid part of his head, hahaha.

this is a super quick sketch i did last saturday during the class. i would like to some day make more loose drawings+watercolors, a-la-Casey Toussaint, hahaha. I admire her work very much.

EDM challenge # 12

i made this drawing from memory. i had "empanadas" for dinner a few days ago, but i didn't think of drawing it at that moment, so later that night i made the drawing of what they look like and the process for preparing them. it's all written in the drawing.

EDM challenge # 108

EDM 108 draw a light bulb,
originally uploaded by dibujandoarte.

i changed the bulb from the bathroom so before i thew it away i remember of this challenge and i drew it. i didn't put much attention to the metal part, i liked most the glass to work. guess will have to try making others but working more the curves and lights/shadows on the metal.
