Speaking of exhibitionists. This guy here was an odd one. He always had with him a little profolio of drawings of himself by all kinds of people. He would talk about how he was protrayed and how it made him feel to be put on paper. I would sometimes catch him looking at me when I drew the face. Felt uncomfortable. WHen the pose was hard, he would start to shake instead of saying he needed a break. Anyways, heres two more:
ive had some terrible models. i could smell ones box from across the room a month ago, i had a guy burst into tears when i was doing a portriat, i think alot of models stair when you catch thier eye. meh

BUCK FUSH-
It's a painting from a photo of my dad at actually 16 years old.
Ussually I hate doing anything much from photos but this was the only way and I just made up shading for colors without much from the photo.
good work fellas,,,,wish my camera didnt shit the bed cause i wanna post some work...but ya.....i have some advice...you guys need to think of the figure as an element in the piece. how is the space activated.. are spending as much time in the "negative" space as you are on the figure...ok ok ok....its sort of like this. take for example a hoffman square painting. every piece has a significant importance to makin the compostion and feeling of the painting work.. this is true even in hyper realist painting.. its not the clearity of the piece. its how the eye is tricked into traveling over the space..where you enter and leave. if at all............also its not aboutmaking a realist stle or certain style...the style of the piece is the result of the endeavor....when i paint draw ect, i have no preconcieved notice of what it is goin to look like..sort of an abstract expressionist train of thought...im gonna see if i can dig up some examples of what im talkin about on the net
yes, space contributes. But to infer an exsistance os background is just as engaging to me. I really dig those examples, illustrates your point. Hope you getting you camera to stop shitting. The bed is a place of rest. Poop goes in the toilet!
just wanted to add that spacial activation doesnt mean the piece has to have a flat qualtiy(shallow space) such as those two pieces have... they can have depth and be more "realized(realistic)" interpitations and still hold an interesting composition....basically you have to ask yourself, what do i want my pieces to do? what ami saying through these formal elements? how do they feel? (feelings haha) but ya..i also understand most of these are studys so to speak.. even then i think space should be reconized but short hand drawings are usefull as well....ok im done puttin in my 2 cents...bottom line. good work ..just some thoughts of mine
went to the zoo.
This is a girl I'm seeing, Johanna and her first time posing for a sketch. If she looks like a monkey, it's because I was drawing them all day, always a good excuse.
I know a girl who has done that modelling stuff. She is a former drug addict with the worst tattoos in the world. Like, EASILY myspace picture post top 3 bad. I wonder what people think of that.
I think we have to organize a car wash so we can get the tats removed before her kid can figure out what they are.
They're really that bad.

THTHTHTH
Omen, what are those done with exactly? I'm sure the MF Doom was done in a computer program (pre-scanned?) and the portrait of the girl you posted previously was.. it looked like Illustrator too. But i'm not really sure.
Sabe, nice stuff as usual.
edit*
Oh, I forgot to ask why are those so blurry Omen?

you should check out the local natural history museum if you want to get a good look at animals. granted all the animals are stuffed and posed by people who dont really understand how to make them balanced and natural looking, they usually have an amazing selection of animals and you can usually fix the contra pasto in your sketch. just an idea, harvard has a great one if your in the area
