I bought some pencil crayons (“colored pencils” for you non-Canadians) today and brought them to life drawing tonight. The poses are 10-15 minutes.

More sketches after the jump…

More life drawing tonight; I found a great class in Montreal at Studio Technique on St-Catherine. Mostly animators, I think. Trying to loosen up. Draw with my shoulder. Not clench the pencil so much…

Have a bit more control over perspective, etc… These are all 5 or 10 minute poses.

Also, I’m putting together a proper portfolio page at MatthewForsythe.com. People were (rightly) complaining the images were too small on my old gallery.

Someone left a piece of charcoal lying around so I started using that here and there.

This guy was not drawing. He was eating a cookie.

Had a lot of fun. I’m going to go back a lot more this year…
