Life Drawing at OAS!

A Glimpse inside my sketchbook at some Life Drawings from last night's session at Orange Art Studio! For me, life drawing if a lifelong pursuit and passion - It keeps me on top of my skills and in touch with a group of artists. I hold these sessions every Thursday night with different models every week, and they are completely open for other artists to participate. So remember kids, stay healthy with your regular dose of vitamins, fresh air, and figure drawing.

Every Thursday Night at Orange Art Studio

Blood, Guts, Girls, and Gore!

Hosted by the one and only real deal in the OC, Orange Art Studio, where high culture meets hot bodies drenched in blood.

Melora

Got a chance to sketch Melora Creager at a Rasputina show at the Troubadour recently. She is a very inspiring performer. I carried the drawing through to a 16x32 bleach portrait on a dark brown cotton ground (left). The ink sketch (right) is approximately 6x12 inches.

Peace Project

My submission for Peace Project at Whole 9 is an exercise in symmetry forcing a extended state of focused concentration. The wars initiated and perpetuated by the private industries which have hijacked the american government fill me with rage, frustration, and despair. A creative output is the only acceptable expression of this destructive energy.

Artists represent the silenced majority - Americans against the war!
