Pictures from Friday's Class

I don't want to overload the drawg with pictures, so I've uploaded a few I took during class to my flickr account. If you'd like to, the set can be viewed HERE.

Last Week's animation

I put together the frames of the animation from class and it looks pretty great! Unfortunately i can't seem to figure out how to post it here on the Drawg and have it loop continuously so I will just bring the animation to class on Friday.

See you then!

Drawing lines and making value ranges through cut shapes and shadows. Wish I could have a great hair day like this some day.

This is my fav. part of Matt's drawing. It makes a person's mouth salivate to see marks like this.

Check this out! I love this stuff. (scratch scratch dappledapple). Arum's hand was cruising in this part of the drawing.

Brian's marks are so strong, and also layered in a way that is loose, and really works in this section of the piece. The story behind the portrait seems important to how sober the image appears.

Patrick looking at materials that will help find the feminine in the masculine (through fish?). How to use and claim fish in a way that his father NEVER would... a question worth asking. The fabric washed and more interesting afterward.

Danny's projected drawings mades me think of muscles and tendons, and the inner parts of our bodies - layered below the skin of the paper.

The residue of Isa's lovely, emphatic/emotive energies as a kind of portrait we all have experienced already in class.

Tanya's delicate marks, and repetition of line marching across her shoulders. The criss cross of her hands and feet and the crossing of her bra straps with the shirt - very satisfying.

This hand has so much power behind it, and is saying something so different than the previous one posted. The lines around it help animate, and give it force.

Rebecca: Sophie loves this posture. Love this section of the drawing - important to the content. Exaggerated feature sometimes WORK!

Sophie: The ever mysterious gaze. This is a nice section of the portrait. To think it was not going to be there at first...

George: Ah. yes - a man's neck.

Carolyn's thought drawing: When is the last time any of us thought of a clock, Pinochio, and then a fish in consecutive moments?

Veta's work: the lips and eye of glass.

Elizabeth's work reminds me of Tom Friedman (sp?)'s work, and the tenacity of this action. The values change in the work, and they sort of magically draw themselves - even when the action is supposedly repeated over and over - the overall effect is something entirely different.

Kate experiments with new mediums. Exploring space and values as well as line.

Love this shoe/ankle.
