Hooded priestess, charcoal. Trying out a new blue toned paper. Can you tell it’s blue? I can’t tell in these photos but I can in real life, which begs the question, which life is real? As always, drapery is the fun challenge.

Found this one hidden in the stack of frames, a figure drawing demonstration I did a few months back for a video reel. I thought it could do with a bit of touch up and blending. I need to devise a catalogue system for these drawings because lying them on top of my modular synth isn’t very organized. This one and others for sale on my store!

More studies with stylized angles and lighting. Looking for those flow lines that wend like rivers down the entire form. Our bodies are like rivers flowing down to the earth, if you will indulge my poetic metaphors.

Night Queen’s Attendant - charcoal study 9x11”. Another piece of the larger scene expands from the center. Tried some colored pastel on this but didn’t take it very far. However I cut myself while drawing and got some blood on the paper in the bottom right, so just painted it in. A shame to waste good orange sanguine pigment, wouldn’t you say?

Queen of the Night, charcoal study 9x12”. Further value studies for seated figure. Will work on one of the other surrounding figures next as I slowly build up this scene which promises to challenge my skills to distraction. Wish me luck!

Fast and sloppy line practice with mechanical pencil. Instead of blending I tried to use the pencil like an ink pen. Reference from Artstation, can’t remember which pack. But I believe it was the very model of a modern major general!

Slums of Donavery. Finished or ongoing? This fictional location began as a sketch of a house on the floating village that once existed, now long demolished, across from the Phnom Penh riverfront. Many moons ago I had my small sketch printed onto canvas. My plan was to keep painting it, but as with many projects I got busy and abandoned it. Now I’m thinking I could return to it, or leave it like it is.
