Blouson

After buying a vintage 80s shirt jacket that has a full blouson AND full bell-like sleeves, I've been into the idea of a really blousey jacket like this.

Innocent 9 (done?)

I think it's done, even if it's not perfect. As I once said, "Done is better than perfect!" I think the crux of the matter is I don't know if it looks like him, but I really am not as familiar with his features having met him only a few times. i did compare my drawing with other shots of him from different angles, which often tell me how certain features play out in a pose I'm working with. It helps me understand why parts look a certain way from the angle I'm drawing, because I can see from other angles how they a structured.

That said, I'm still not completely confident, but then again, as artists, I dunno if we ever are...

Bacteria

I was inspired by a photo of algae or coral that Jarrod Scott posted on an Instagram story, so I thought they'd make interesting graphic motifs. Now, just need to figure out how such motifs would exist in an artwork...

Slouching Emil 3

Here's an old one I just picked up again: I haven't touched this sketch since almost a year ago. And I completely changed his face.

Conte Skater

Really, I just drew him for his hair, as it's based on a young Brit kid who was ahead of me at the checkout like at Cos in the WTC.

Rough Poses 4

True enough, I dusted this off again to tinker tinker tinker. Not that it looks much different, but it was more about anatomy tweaks before I posted it on Instagram.

Blown Out

Another one of those mistaken identity ideas. I was browing through a site and thought I saw an image that later proved to be different, paving the way for me to draw something unintentionally original.

Stalking The Night, 2

I can't seem to get the eyes right...

Stalking The Night

I imagined a very editorial-like shot composed of a lean, hip looking guy staring directly at the camera as he's walking by, I thought Id lay out the image and see if i can urn it into a finshed drawing, and so far, I'm quite happy with the pose as it looks like the one in my head.

Eric, Done (I hope)

I opened the most recent file up again today after seeing Eric post an Instagram story, and I figured it looked like him enough that I shouldn't overwork it (any more than I already have!). So methinks he's done for now. Unless I look back again later and have horrible recriminations about my abilities!

Sphagettits Western

I had a silly idea for a drag-like version of a Raf Simons western shirt.

Brush With The Past

The Badass Brush looks great with the look of a 50s fashion illustration!

Bernardo

Bonus post: while in a meeting today, I doodled my coworker Bernardo. I didn't have my glasses on and I really can't draw things from a distance without them anymore, so some features were wrong. That said, he complimented me on my confident line, because I did his nose in one stroke. The woman was another person from the new building we're working in and I'm not sure what her name is but I drew her too.

Anarchy Mode 5

The more work I do on him, the less it looks like him, yet the more correct the work becomes. Ugh, no wonder I tend to leave it for later.

Surprised 2

Yesterday's drawing was terrible. Today's is an improvement on hat file, but not by very much. For whatever reason, I'm trying to draw features I'm not necessarily drawn to draw, but what I see on actors and personalities whom I think are handsome but not o my usual taste.

Surprised

I should know better than to try and sketch after a really hefty workout My HIIT regimen really takes all the energy out of me.

Innocent 8

It's quite possibe that this is done with this iteration. I won't know until I let some time pass though, as I've belabored this drawing a bit much, methinks.

Retro Kids

Just thought I'd round out the family but not really feeling the facial work on these kids.

Salaryman

It's been such a long and tiring week (I got sick and our offices moved to Brooklyn, which is a commute I haven't had to do in forever) that as I was drawing, I fell nodded off, and woke up thinking, huh, I didn't think I was drawing that. But I like him. It feels a bit naive in a way.

Vintage Hat Lady

I was feeling a very 50s vibe after seeing a ot of vintage illos on Pinterest...

She was actually drawn on the 14th as a makeup sketch for the 12th, and as a complement for the "Salaryman" of the 13th's sketch. Complicated, huh?
