Practice cartoon faces (Pencil)

This is another great book, "Fun with Pencil" by Andrew Loomis
I want to learn the Loomis method of people drawing so in this book he starts by drawing cartoons.










I'm posting these lessons on my blog because I tend to lose sketchbooks.

practice drawing spheres (pencil)

Trying to improve my drawing skills and learn vocabulary related to art.
This is a great book. "You can draw in 30 days" by Mark Kistler


 These last 2 exercises were very fun. I like drawing spheres.

practice pencil sketches 12/9/16















 I was trying to put in the big shape but it seems to work better if I start from an eye and work my way out.

9x12 Pencil view from New Berlin Library upstairs window

I always start light with pencil because you can't go back and make it lighter so the darks were still light when I stopped.
Always fun to sketch with my buddies.
It was 30F and overcast so we decided to sketch indoors.
