booze or doodle

this past tuesday i attended another life drawing session but this one is a little different it is held the first tuesday of every month at the vortex known as the "booze or doodle" i don't drink or anything so i just doodled! and just like any life drawing session its a model and you start with gestures and move on to longer poses. but whats different is that its more of a show...a burlesque show...umm well anyways its not as weird as you think it is. actually its pretty cool (free tator tots c'mon on!) see for your self here.

i'm not in any of the photos because they haven't put them up yet but you can get the idea from there previous sessions. but here is one of the drawings i did there, its part of there creative challenge theme.



basically the model for the evening was a dough nut girl and ya got 15mins to make up a theme about the pose she was in, and the old famous stereotype about police officers and dough nuts came to mind.



this has nothing to do with the booze or doodle but i just drew this with my wacom tablet and colored it in corel painter. honestly i don't color my drawings alot and i think i should start doing that more often..

SHes so hot....on my drawings...the group sketch...that was some friends from AIA...Kurt,Red,Jon and them....By the way...the drawing of the girl you did in this pic...the way you threw the lines brings sensuality real well...good job

sup man...i feel the same way. you begin to ink and, unless your great at it, your drawing looses all it's energy....i've always preferred to see roughs over anything clean...in a great rough drawing you can see what the artist was thinking , where he had taken his lines and stuff....cleaning up always kills that..like you said stiffens it.
