Drawing Marathon: Week 1

So I'm taking a three week drawing Marathon at UH Manoa. It's a fairly intensive studio class taught by Reem Bassous. I've noticed within the first week that Reem does a great job of understanding student's strengths and pushing them out of their comfort zone. I'm learning a lot about my tendencies in drawing (marks, composition, problem solving, et cetera). I'm also relearning how lame it is to spend six hours on a drawing and end up with crap. Anyway, here are some pictures from the first week:

Charcoal Sketch

It has been a while since I used charcoal, so my goal was to work quickly and not worry about accuracy. I think I got most of the cobwebs out. Better things to come...

Germany Part Three

If you know my good pal Trey Reis, you might know he makes some stellar tunes. If you know me, you probably know I have too much time on my hands, ergo: music video. (I'm still working on parts of it. I'll update when it's finished. Listen on headphones; for some reason speakers aren't picking up parts of the song.)
