sketch a day 9 - Almitra WIP

I wanted to move a personal piece forward a bit, but only have these short amounts of time per day to do it. So instead of a quick sketch, I put in some time on a larger WIP piece. More later.

sketch a day 4 / Atelier Week 3


So today is week 3 of my 6 week Saturday class at Sadie Valeri Atelier in San Francisco. I am having a wonderful time there. I have always wanted to work on my anatomy and rendering ability and accuracy. There is nothing better than have 6 - 3 hour long sessions of the same pose so you can really match what your eye is seeing. This will have to count as my sketch of the day as well.

Sketch A Day 3 - Point Bonita Lighthouse

Started this Friday off with an early morning trip to the VA hosipital at Ft. Miley, a hidden gem in San Francisco. That early morning light on a rare, fog-free morning creates beautiful shadow shapes on the mountainous basalt cliffs across the narrow Golden Gate.
   Did this 30 minute plein-aire sketch with that Cintiq Companion Hybrid. using Artflow, a terrific combination.
