Hand with pen

This is a simple quick study of a hand drawn quickly and block style drawn with pencil.

Skeleton Hand Study

This is another skeleton hand study done while on travel and done with pencil.  It sometimes is hard to believe this is what a hand looks like without the flesh.

Hand and Wrist study

I found this great picture and I am trying to draw it in pencil.  This is the start.

Cherry Blossom - Close Up

I worked on the close up of the Cherry Blossoms.  I did not like the background so I changed it to a more greyed out darker one.  I added more texture and roundness to the buds and the branches.  I think it is close to done.  The Blossoms that survived the crazy weather are peaking this weekend so get to the Tidal Basin to enjoy or wait till next year.

More practice - Skeleton study

I have worked more on drawing studies, I did this study of a hand bone structure done in pencil.   The story is the study if bone structure and muscles helps with drawing skills.  I guess it does but maybe it just helps with drawing.

Happy Birthday, Spencer

Today is the son-in-law's birthday.  He likes his duck hunting so he gets the Canvasback Duck for his card.  This was done with colored pencils.

Foot Study

A little bit every day, work towards getting better and eventually you are better.  So this is a pencil sketch of a foot in mid stride, done with pencil.
