Knowing when to stop

Had fun yesterday at Dr. Sketchy’s New Year figure drawing marathon. I dropped in for five hours (out of 26). My respect to anyone who went the whole distance.

Here are some ten-minute poses. I like that pace, because it forces me to draw fast and quit before I ruin it. If I’m given too much time, I’m liable to overwork it (come to think of it, that applies to other endeavors too). It’s amazing how fast the ten minutes go by, though.

And yeah, I know, the drawings show through the paper. When this sketchbook is full I may switch back to the Moleskines.

    Nice Jordan. Sorry I missed it. Actually, I kinda like the ghost images. It’s interesting.

    You’re still such a great drawer, thanks for publishing your works ! Frankly, a sequel to the Last Express made with this kind of art would be so wonderful…
