what chiu lookin at?

cafe sketches from this Sundays sketching with Bobby Chiu. I'm starting to really enjoy getting a little more loose and a bit more flow into my lines... for a long time i have been caught up in trying to draw what i've been seeing... now I'm just trying to spit it back out as an interpretation. its a hell of a lot funner.

I'm kinda dying to get back into life drawing now though, my anatomy is awful right now... just needs some studying.

so tired... must post.... drawin's...

new kid. i think I'm getting a better general likeness day by day... but its still the specifics are still frustrating me. i find it hard to get a likeness that blows people away like some of the drawings my co-workers are capable of.

i'm almost sad that i only have half a season left to grow in the medium before school. if i dont get a job straight out of school (which could very well happen) i'll probably go back for another summer. i find thats when you really get the hang of it, like my friends ed and ollie have.


i would like to incorperate more of this kind of stuff into my caricature work. there have been a few little sketches like this that i have really nailed a likeness on. its interesting how much you can suggest with such simple lines.
