IF:Swamp

The theme for this weeks IF is swamp and I interpreted the topic pretty literally and decided to make an old shack in the middle of a swamp. I wish I could of spent more time on his because looking at it now some things appear a little "wonky" (for lack of a better word ), but for the most part, I am satisfied. :) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dIKmSwJkNJs 00:54-1:56 was my inspiration :P )

Life Drawings

I had posted some life drawings here a few months ago where I was referencing from slides from a figure/gesture drawing site, however now that I am taking an actual course, I feel like I have improved so much since then (when I didn't really know what I was doing). I really enjoy the class, and I hope to post more life drawings soon!
But for now here is some of my class work thus far (go easy on me I'm still a beginner :P)

hand studies

More to come!

IF: Shades

I actually started this before I knew what this weeks topic was, but I think it works because of the various shades of color used to make the reflections on the ground. I only realized after I scanned it that the umbrella looks a little too large but oh well, maybe it's a golf umbrella :P
