Suddenly, in the middle of my shift yesterday, I got sick, a sore throat, congestion, chills, aches, shakes... Great! (Sarcasm, there.) ...Anyway, so I immediately got off the fast and got some nutrition and vitamins in me. ...Really bad timing. I have a LONG gig tomorrow, and then a stressful (in a fun way) butt sketch gig on the next day. I really need the money, so there ain't no way I'm calling in sick. ...Been in bed all day, drank lots of water, then did some more practice sketches, and now I gotta go sit at the Nick stand... Woo-hoo!
As far as these practice sketches go, I was looking at actual photos of people on the ButtSketch.com website, rather than looking at DRAWINGS of people. This should help me.
It seems to me that life drawing like this is all about gesture, which, to me, means the "feel" of the sweeping angles of objects. ...And I find myself exaggerating a bit on these...

Nice flowy sketches, Tim. I guess you were right when you said you were getting sick this last Saturday at AK. My sneezing fits turned out to be just an allergic reaction to the bushes near the far right easel where I was working. Hope ya feel better, man! Keep up the good work!
Thanks, Jimbo. But I can't figure out if I like to use the Markette or the Pit (Brush) Pen on these.... My little illness came-on fast, so hopefully it'll disappear fast.
hmm. seems like a lot of people are getting sick these days. Hope you feel better by now as I post this. These are pretty great by the way. It's inspired me to go and do more practicing. Thanks Tim for being an inspiration! yaay.
uh... man, I'm like, trying this out... and it's pretty dang tough! I'll blog it later. But, I think I have to practice it a bit more. This is a neat challenge.
I like how you pushed the pose in the leg area in these. Especially on the girl in the left drawing and the lady in the right as well. Pretty cool stuff Tim!
