Prague Life Drawing

I promise less boring things than life drawing for the next few posts, but here's just a small bit of the life drawing I did out there. Though I'm showing more of the landscape drawings/watercolors, I did way more people drawing out here but I know that's kind of boring to look at...I just upload it because I enjoy doing it so much.

And a note for the watercolors and landscape stuff...all mostly very simplified/rushed cause I had to stop when my family wanted to leave. Oh gawd, sounds like I'm making excuses for myself...no I'm not going for that.

Also, Prague was awesome. And it sparked something in me that's been dead(or at least dormant) artistically speaking.

Okay, enough rambling, now let's go...drawings!

The ones on the right are memory drawings. Bottom left drawing is me(saw myself in a reflection).

  1. I'm not sure why you think that life drawings are boring...I think they're fascinating! I see stories with people that I rarely see with pictures of stuff.

  2. Well, I personally don't think they're boring but I've noticed with most people I show my sketchbooks to in real life tend to zone out/aren't really interested when it comes to my life drawing stuff, so I guess they just assumed people thought they were boring compared to the other things I create and that's all I seem to upload to this blog, so I just hastily wrote that. Thanks for making me realize that's not true and that I need to give my own life drawings more cred.

  4. Thanks Mal! And I'm sure you'll be able to go to somewhere is Europe soon-I mean, I am very lucky that my family took me, but it doesn't take terribly long to save up for a trip like this and just as long are you do your research, it doesn't neccesarily have to be an uber expensive trip. And definitely one to take if you have the chance whatsoever.
