Sorry. My model said "Drawings only, non-commercial purposes only" for my stuff (which was made for a different activity). If I do future ones I'll post refs.

Can we move this to the Daily Activities?

And people, a 'no-nude' rule, is no big deal. Plenty of you are drawing nekkid women regardless, so just get on with ok?

choasrocks"you might want to put this thread in the Community activities pages
or I f you would like me to move it there I certainly can rather than in the lounge."


if you think it's a better place for it........than so be it! the lounge was the only place i could start a thread of my own. -thanks

Granny that pug is sooooo adorable *goes all gooey-eyed* (I'm so craving a pet right now, I miss having one around) You got the expression down to a T.

J.S nice study, I like your hawty expression on her face better than the photo

This thread is a good idea, I haven't really looked at the other sketch groups yet though I think I found the idea intimidating at first so never bothered.

[Raoul Duke]

Here's a link to the ref. I did take plenty of liberties though.

"took some ACE hardware 1gallon paint buckets and destroyed a canvas(with your emotions) then called it art..."

lol guys!!!!!!!!! great entries so far!!!!!!!! my first digi building from ref 3hrs

[karma militia]

This thread has much potential, methinks.

Thanks to those who posted their reference, I like seeing how other people interpret reality.

[Nibras]

Great idea for a thread J.s. I'll try to get my scanner working and post up some sketches.
Would master studies also be ok?

By the way, about the nudity thing; the only reason you shouldn't say it's not allowed is because there so much to learn from drawing a nude figure and for a lot of us still learning anatomy need to do a lot of studies from reference of that. Just keep that idea in mind.

Yeah though gotta get my scanner working and I'll defiantly be putting some stuff up here

[Raoul Duke]

I'm going to be gone all weekend. I want to see this thread alive and kicking when I get back.

[Téa_Passer]

*subscribes* in case it runs away hehe


in fact I have one of those canvases destroyed with my emotions drying on the desk About to "create" some more. Releases all kinds of frustration and stress btw.

Sketches coming!

[j.s. sabastian]

ok.......to make it clear-er......you can ref from a nude figure.......and when i implied nude i was more or less talking about what ileakee was talking about. what some might call pornographic nudity..........i'm not talking about per say the nude models in an art class. they are so differren't...i just thought we could do without it.....and another thing.....i started this thread with the hopes to motivate myself and others.......granted the start of the thread was wishy washy (my fault)
i can't delete or remove posts here so do what you want i guess........i just had an idea of what this thread might be like.......drawing something from referance daily...

p.s i said daily..... it's not a requirement....it's not like your gonna get kicked out for not drawing daily.

[Black Spot]

Haven't finished, but done while drinking a bottle of wine.

[GoGoJojo]

J.S., I finally had time to do one!

[SMILEFACE]

Frank Stella




Jackson Pollock



Willem De Kooning



Mark Rothko



It's not new. All these guys used house paint at a point, and some of them were house painters by profession. You may not like their work, but take a few moments to look them up since they had a huge impact on the art world.

[j.s. sabastian]

oh no doubt!!!!! i'm just A: too much of a drunken asshole too realize what point you where tyring to prove!by the way that was my ignorent post!
"took some ACE hardware 1gallon paint buckets and destroyed a canvas(with your emotions) then called it art..."
here's something else our art on canvas would be worth something(when where dead) but all the art i've been posting on CA over these past three years........i haven't really learned anything....that i couldn't at one piont in time learned on my own....... if you want to learn about digital painting ...fork up the sixty dollars and pay for thosegnomonworkshopvids......not that i promote that site becuase it based of money intake....but than again all my friends and family are on here. even the mods!!!!!xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
