Yesterday I showed you some coffee shop victims who fled the scene before I could finish them
off. Here are a couple victims who gave me a little more time and the luxury of
graphite.
The man in the broad-brimmed hat was chatting with a
couple of friends, so I knew he’d be there a while. The special treat he gave
me is the one-quarter profile, which I find to be the most challenging view of
the face.
The man in the puffy down jacket is the same man I showed
yesterday when I drew him while he waited in line. It turned out that he sat right
in front of me and stayed long enough that I could examine his jacket’s texture
at length. Those puffy jackets are a fascinating study of light and dark; the
fabric is smooth and shiny, and it crinkles where it’s sewn. I see so many of
them around town that I think sketching a series of them would make a good winter
project!

You did a great job on these, as you always do with colored pencil, also.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I'm working on it! :-)
DeleteI find the puffy jackets interesting too. Isn't it nice that some of your victims sat for a while instead of running off? Nice!
