For those that know


For those that know about figure drawing, you will be aware of where I copied these drawings from. One page for yesterday and the other for today.

Sunday´s sketch


A dreamy erotic drawing taken from one of Michelangelo's paintings.

Saterday´s drawing


Yesterday being Saturday, was the day to work in the garden, so like all good husbands I spent the day clearing up the remains of two large trees the storm had blown over. After spending the day with a chainsaw and other garden tools, when it came to night fall, not only did i not feel like doing a drawing, but it was difficult to operate a drawing pencil. My hands were just shaking too much - hence the drawing done only now. Will later today do the drawing for today as well.

Great Book


This image was copied from a great book my wife bought me. A book that showed a lot of Michelangelo's drawings.

Today's drawing as well as yesterday´s


I did one of these drawings yesterday but did not get a chance to upload them to the net, hence the posting of 2 images today. The nude is a copy of Matisse´s work, and the portrait of a man with his chin resting on his hands, was done by Henry Fuseli

In the sun


This young man was lying in the sun with a towel over his head. One of my favourite pieces.

Have done this before, but


I have done this drawing before, but decided that I wanted to have another go at it. Never satisfied, hey?

Another day another drawing


Today was the day that I did not feel like drawing at all, and I think it shows in this drawing. Unfortunately my heart was not into it this morning, and so the result was not that great. However, I also feel that we can not sit around waiting for the inspiration or the willingness to put pencil to paper. If one wants results one has to be able to draw even when does not feel the need. Just like a professional musician can not decide that he will not play today because he does not feel like it. It is the artists responsibility, to practice his craft on a daily basis.

Don´t Know


I do not know who the original artist is, but I really enjoyed copying this drawing.

Section from a Painting


This is a small section from one of the painting of Leonardo de Vinci. Natuarly the painting has colour, and because this is a pencil drawing, it does not. I also paid almost no attention to the animal, all my efforts were directed to drawing the woman. This was supposed to been put up yesterday, but because I could not get though to the blog (maybe the server was down, who knows?), it was put up this morning. Hope you all have a good day.

Leonardo de Vinci ugly


One of the ugly drawing that Leonardo de Vinci did, but there were a lot more uglier ones.

Drawing 101


Drawing 101, sound familiar to you? Do you remember doing/studying computer science 101, or any of the other 101's?
