More Sketches of James Corden
So last year as you saw I started sketching James Corden while viewing “Gavin & Stacey.” (See yesterday’s post.) I decided, since I was having fun sketching him at lunch I’d stay up and watch his late night show. And of course sketch him. It’s always fun to work on Nostalgie. The smooth surface of […]
A Year Ago Today…Always Learning
Even though I haven’t been posting much lately here on RozWoundUp I have been busy posting on my Patreon site, and continuing my culling of books from my library, completing and lining up work projects, and of course cooking, cooking, cooking. I’ll have more to say about the cooking on another day, but today I […]
Sketching Stuart with Watercolor
After doing so many sketches of Stuart in pen, I decided to sketch him in watercolor. I was working in a Hahnemühle Drawing and Sketching Sketchbook. It contains a high quality drawing paper, but it’s not a wet media paper. I had to be careful not to use too much water, and not to work […]
Another Look At Stuart…
Here’s another quick sketch of the same muse from Sktchy. I love that mustache. I was sitting in the car while Dick was in the pharmacy (all masked up). The visit went very quickly and I only had a few minutes. But it was enough time to look at the large shapes of value and […]
Drawing the Same Subject Over and Over
Just a series of quick posts today and next week—drawing the same subject over and over. Don’t think that each sketch has to be great. Just look closely when you’re drawing and get the visual information to go into your mind. Have fun looking. Savor it. Today is a brush pen sketch from 2018. It’s […]
From Last Year, A Trip To Urgent Care
You may see the thumbnail for the art in this post and think either Dick or I are ill. We are fine! This journal spread is from last year in November 2019. Dick had a weird infection in his elbow and so I went with him to Urgent Care. The phlebotomist wasn’t really tracking. I […]
A Project on Projects: Do It Anyway December
A couple weeks ago I asked the Tier 3 subscribers on my Patreon Blog what they wanted to talk about in the upcoming webinar. Their responses surprised me: project generation and color theory. OK the color theory questions weren’t surprising, but the project questions were. I sat down and started thinking what to do, […]
I Start a New Sketchbook
If the above video doesn’t run you can view it here. I’m not connected to Hahnemühle in a paid capacity, but I sure do enjoy working in their Travel Journal. On the 27th of September I started a new sketchbook that is a favorite type and size to me. In this very short video […]
Suggesting Hair Mass with Line
You don’t always have to use ink or paint wash to show volume in hair. I love working in the Hahnemühle Travel Journal. (See also the Hahnemühle Travel Book category.) It contains paper suitable for drawing and for pen and ink. I’ve used it for that in this sketch. Sometimes I also do washes on […]
Monochromatic Exaggeration (Only a Little)
Another great hairdo. Did I exaggerate it? Maybe just a little. If you would like to see me create this pen and watercolor sketch on illustration board please subscribe to my Patreon Blog Roz Interim. This one hour and 45 minute real-time video is available to Tier 3 subscribers as a bonus video this month. […]
