Icarus ...... drawing at Dr.Sketchy's ..

Last Saturday I visited Dr Sketchy's in Dublin with the Cork Sketchgroup

where life drawing models pose in a cabaret setting. Its a fun show and a great 

opportunity to draw from life. This is the last twenty minute sketch given by 

one of the models. Derwent pencils and an oil Pitt on cartridge pad.

Thanks for looking :)

A couple of plein air sketches..

I got involved this week with the Plein Eire group's, seven day drawing challenge. 

Complete a plein air drawing each day for one week. 

Of the  drawings I managed to fit in, these I think, are my favorites.

Both were completed using Derwent pencils, and a medium oil pitt

on 160lb acid free cartridge.

Thanks for looking :)
