After all the dog drawing I needed a break last weekend but I'm back with…

Kevin At The Interview
It’s too hot outside today: watercolour paint will dry far too quickly. Ā So I’m indoors with the inktense pencils.
It’s back to one of my favourite models, Kevin. Ā I drew him quite loosely, not worrying too much about shape and angles but concentrating more on rhythm and gesture. Ā I wanted to stay away from blues and violets today – they’re my fastest shrinking pencils. Ā So I started my colours with charcoal grey, then added bark and balked earth. Ā And I couldn’t resist throwing in some leaf green and shiraz. Ā And then I added all the water.
Best bits about this are the face and the shapes between the arms and the left leg, all of them spot on. Ā Worst bits? Ā Maybe the left foot is misshaped (I need to leave feet out of these) and the bottom undersized. Ā But not too bad overall – inktense pencils are great.
