Here is a random soldier drawing from a couple years ago. Seems pretty influenced by <a href="http://billsanchezart.tumblr.com">Bill Sanchez</a> so I probably drew it for one of his classes.

Anyone interested in that should definitely look to the work of Rembrandt Bugatti, Antoine Barye,Fremiet (sp?), Ken Bunn, Bart Walters, Jonathan Kenworthy, David Derrick, etc. There are a lot of badasses out there! I wish I had time for more sculpture, it's particularly fun to drag the materials out to the zoo and work from life. I started this piece at the zoo and then worked on it from home based on drawings and photos. It is sculpted out of an oil based clay so I don't have to worry about it drying out while I'm working. It was just practice to improve my big cat drawings but I'd love to do a finished full figure in bronze some day.<br /><br />By the way, I'm sure I don't have to mention how endangered Tigers are in the wild. Go check out the <a href="http://www.savetigersnow.org/">WWF</a> page on tigers to find out more about their plight and efforts to save them from extinction! See, even Leonardo DiCaprio thinks conservation is cool! :)<br /><br />Other artists that think conservation is cool-<br /><br /><a href="http://joeweatherly.net">Joe Weatherly</a><br /><a href="http://elephantart.blogspot.com">Andrew Shek</a><br /><a href="http://dgderrick.wordpress.com">David Derrick</a>christopherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18371010848732985671noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2243939288293447914.post-83951146886889832362011-09-24T16:32:00.000-07:002011-09-24T17:02:44.935-07:00New Stuff.<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3qTtuGA4_LIZ74xdOrWl0-RnuOT0hO43XwrnulwDOyumVy4o-N5he9ca6bKmzP2qpxo4g4IjPRXafzT8QotJsi7DHvTx4KGITrKI7wJ4xwuJiKGIsn8pmwE-KvhdwLuSJqS5JSS8S72rC/s1600/IMG_1952.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3qTtuGA4_LIZ74xdOrWl0-RnuOT0hO43XwrnulwDOyumVy4o-N5he9ca6bKmzP2qpxo4g4IjPRXafzT8QotJsi7DHvTx4KGITrKI7wJ4xwuJiKGIsn8pmwE-KvhdwLuSJqS5JSS8S72rC/s320/IMG_1952.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5656074668112880402" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkTGNpoV-_GQ8DYkvS2KyD0ReIskl0Uvc4kPSlGFKVEdgHTiP4IYjBgdGaelY9NJOxnZRGo8JWc2sAuIu78Xwfd9dgwSiM6VUj61566M1NekGmghJaAgQEEOhbz7x0BRuWmU-f6o-WKfqm/s1600/IMG_1951.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkTGNpoV-_GQ8DYkvS2KyD0ReIskl0Uvc4kPSlGFKVEdgHTiP4IYjBgdGaelY9NJOxnZRGo8JWc2sAuIu78Xwfd9dgwSiM6VUj61566M1NekGmghJaAgQEEOhbz7x0BRuWmU-f6o-WKfqm/s320/IMG_1951.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5656074662325412930" /></a><br /> Well I've been guilty of posting only posting old stuff on this blog for a while now, so I thought I would finally bite the bullet and post something new. These are 20 minute poses from Bill Sanchez's Clothed Figure class. Pastel and Charcoal. The class is supposed to be about color and composition so we are starting off with some limited palette drawings with black, white, orange and grey. Obviously I still need a lot of work in the composition department :)christopherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18371010848732985671noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2243939288293447914.post-23190873005541805872011-07-07T21:45:00.000-07:002011-07-07T22:01:16.190-07:00Joe Weatherly's Class<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgq-pPRE7Us6Cfl_UPsTqi8ZQdgVeLl-naxsVCfm3UwkVf-UR8UJTHM6LOi1z4pHWRJBVoBQsCrCaJwDhwCCMsHhkitgxkYP42ijxcR_-a_GXtQO5YORf1dGbGEdX1K_o38S1_LCBNyFHw4/s1600/indianrhino1.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 233px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgq-pPRE7Us6Cfl_UPsTqi8ZQdgVeLl-naxsVCfm3UwkVf-UR8UJTHM6LOi1z4pHWRJBVoBQsCrCaJwDhwCCMsHhkitgxkYP42ijxcR_-a_GXtQO5YORf1dGbGEdX1K_o38S1_LCBNyFHw4/s320/indianrhino1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5626842081982157250" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgEw9wRBUrJ3-LQLTmqXOviAsAG5_cqe_8hjbKMB5Ig7jDblKId4UgbhryvBGoFwT2Vs_xmtI4Ig_90RZHBpe_VdKUAuudJ5MFvuleRFRUM7s_sAPIgQNTzWCKx-LrykOCKgrLSbOcKCC7N/s1600/giraffes.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 233px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgEw9wRBUrJ3-LQLTmqXOviAsAG5_cqe_8hjbKMB5Ig7jDblKId4UgbhryvBGoFwT2Vs_xmtI4Ig_90RZHBpe_VdKUAuudJ5MFvuleRFRUM7s_sAPIgQNTzWCKx-LrykOCKgrLSbOcKCC7N/s320/giraffes.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5626842077696943890" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5WtW9p-LrDxpTpt7gA7vdHQ2Q3OIT1qGHf2hf1eMGpSuLrWXHIvv31lwvM1ucF3_dkB6R8X_-sb2UKLyJ_9fyw2sA2boQfs96-R5sLu6JqKLEdcrQuDs8J6vChyphenhyphenAcDMShtEVqQHIRvGq3/s1600/oldanimalstuff1.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 233px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5WtW9p-LrDxpTpt7gA7vdHQ2Q3OIT1qGHf2hf1eMGpSuLrWXHIvv31lwvM1ucF3_dkB6R8X_-sb2UKLyJ_9fyw2sA2boQfs96-R5sLu6JqKLEdcrQuDs8J6vChyphenhyphenAcDMShtEVqQHIRvGq3/s320/oldanimalstuff1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5626842071964816114" /></a><br /> I was lucky enough to study with the amazing <a href="http://joeweatherly.net">Joe Weatherly</a> for a semester and I couldn't have asked for a better animal drawing instructor. I've had a passion for studying and drawing animals all my life and I hope one day and can use my art to give back to zoos and animal conservation organizations around the world. These are a sampling of old drawings from my semester studying with Joe from the location drawing sketchbook he had us keep.

Joe had us primarily drawing in pen and sketchbooks for the class so it was great to try out the big pad and some different media. I'll admit it was a pain to haul the pad around though. Joe is one of the best teachers I've ever had and I highly recommend anyone take his class or workshop if they get a chance. <br />Oh and by the way the top and bottom are highly endangered female East African Black Rhinos and the middle is a male Indian Rhino.christopherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18371010848732985671noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2243939288293447914.post-22623636962094768292011-03-17T00:59:00.000-07:002011-03-17T01:03:54.234-07:00Sorolla Master Copy<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMwlabYcByLbBUa8sK0lK_FGNUyDt15x8iIBQGn8UF0YQep_brektexlsE51L6luRFOaU5TDfaAZsLwE_E9G6EOn8-2fUf0wwhB7Eni1dtQIlEh7OHchR5itxTOgwYgX-PqR8mx9IA65ve/s1600/sorolla-copy.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 258px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMwlabYcByLbBUa8sK0lK_FGNUyDt15x8iIBQGn8UF0YQep_brektexlsE51L6luRFOaU5TDfaAZsLwE_E9G6EOn8-2fUf0wwhB7Eni1dtQIlEh7OHchR5itxTOgwYgX-PqR8mx9IA65ve/s320/sorolla-copy.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5584956492048848962" /></a>christopherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18371010848732985671noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2243939288293447914.post-42740999933355518432011-03-17T00:54:00.001-07:002011-03-17T00:59:29.677-07:00Character Design Again<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjk7F6SdFjBxfpNKiZhIZeS6YogA7Qbq4Ulwqj_tnEkznKdDDmRjdrwGGG5e7bFQxzKEpvCxBZKTGOuGMIYvJjn4nEWVf19sFhkWsY5S4miwdE6EC6iA65KZmMH6l0YYVuXFMO81OwmVrmC/s1600/angie3-7.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 182px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjk7F6SdFjBxfpNKiZhIZeS6YogA7Qbq4Ulwqj_tnEkznKdDDmRjdrwGGG5e7bFQxzKEpvCxBZKTGOuGMIYvJjn4nEWVf19sFhkWsY5S4miwdE6EC6iA65KZmMH6l0YYVuXFMO81OwmVrmC/s320/angie3-7.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5584954515802580130" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0FZ5VuMj6kDmPiaMgUWOUZPXCoT3WpZCLemn-w5oKqh82pGNGnD0XCX7qhd-LbEimqVlAlUGRMBAdbBc4Yw9XUeqS3OPlmYtzlDUK4-eH87BaiZ53495H2SZMkT_ZktluXmCzL-JKUpmq/s1600/pierre3-7.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 182px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0FZ5VuMj6kDmPiaMgUWOUZPXCoT3WpZCLemn-w5oKqh82pGNGnD0XCX7qhd-LbEimqVlAlUGRMBAdbBc4Yw9XUeqS3OPlmYtzlDUK4-eH87BaiZ53495H2SZMkT_ZktluXmCzL-JKUpmq/s320/pierre3-7.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5584954514682136290" /></a><br />I love drawing animals and I also happened to have a Kley book with me one day so thats where the elephant came from.

It's supposed to be all about gesture and story, taking what the model inspires and running with it. Since the Academy is in the habit of re-using the same models forever it's a breath of fresh air to be able to draw them as whatever you feel like when you're tired of them. These weeks were so-so depending on the costume and model. It seems like I have the most trouble in class when a model goes to great lengths to pick out a costume and then doesn't take poses that correspond to the character.christopherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18371010848732985671noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2243939288293447914.post-47338945134100425152011-03-15T17:26:00.000-07:002011-03-15T17:31:12.385-07:00Back and posting!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgVkq7zlJwaNqIcKhBGt1SF0oSQIGQ04AlEWdp39otU-Wdwxr9Cw5a-LUiFC-qRSVHL7M22tgCpwxsgJccJifXBr-Rxs58LKsKqjUn9t-bHSESFqSRZTogFKlDSjMmEcPn-GuvVh2DFGohs/s1600/Matt02-07.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 182px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgVkq7zlJwaNqIcKhBGt1SF0oSQIGQ04AlEWdp39otU-Wdwxr9Cw5a-LUiFC-qRSVHL7M22tgCpwxsgJccJifXBr-Rxs58LKsKqjUn9t-bHSESFqSRZTogFKlDSjMmEcPn-GuvVh2DFGohs/s320/Matt02-07.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5584468642860402962" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjFKn5rIcu8QcjD5WSUnU4HblmxdW6c0MzQPXi17NHsQoKdxfyxY5VeCF9yEduciaTJu9843SxRvUZtSNYrLJDDi7VYhzP5XcsF9cVsWrmF5SQhRKncY9dXrg_FturAGhtWA2zVNu1cox-d/s1600/Donnie1-31.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 182px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjFKn5rIcu8QcjD5WSUnU4HblmxdW6c0MzQPXi17NHsQoKdxfyxY5VeCF9yEduciaTJu9843SxRvUZtSNYrLJDDi7VYhzP5XcsF9cVsWrmF5SQhRKncY9dXrg_FturAGhtWA2zVNu1cox-d/s320/Donnie1-31.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5584468635917417138" /></a><br />It's been a long, long time so I guess I should start posting again. These are from the midterm for my character design class. We had to select the five best drawings from each week in class. These are from the first two weeks and are all very short poses usually around five minutes.christopherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18371010848732985671noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2243939288293447914.post-91101385329266414752008-04-10T15:19:00.000-07:002008-04-10T15:48:37.133-07:00More Old Sketchbook Stuff<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjln5RrHkQUChUejZe3tdZpw46gw0T-OjnReoOihFCmSWwDbk11UmxpJgmkwq3WhtRC2DPITJuz23kVEHQ0qh3WIdQDNL0pSJoBbp0rKWItdqJR2R15FxwNfemAnyEVQ_s8YpmrBT4Orbte/s1600-h/sc062b2605.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjln5RrHkQUChUejZe3tdZpw46gw0T-OjnReoOihFCmSWwDbk11UmxpJgmkwq3WhtRC2DPITJuz23kVEHQ0qh3WIdQDNL0pSJoBbp0rKWItdqJR2R15FxwNfemAnyEVQ_s8YpmrBT4Orbte/s320/sc062b2605.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5187752187971718498" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAFDlQ02edfWCh6ezlnMwgJ6FcORPggnaJKVG-vJ0X0gPvCoiDuRZqZCXzGEU1C_6k2j0XjtQY6iCDMNOfAphwAcpJ7oJqF1FQWZ51cm9uBxNTyw7rR9QCTWLo75GdXU2kN9ncWvBmj0sf/s1600-h/sc0002d736.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAFDlQ02edfWCh6ezlnMwgJ6FcORPggnaJKVG-vJ0X0gPvCoiDuRZqZCXzGEU1C_6k2j0XjtQY6iCDMNOfAphwAcpJ7oJqF1FQWZ51cm9uBxNTyw7rR9QCTWLo75GdXU2kN9ncWvBmj0sf/s320/sc0002d736.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5187752196561653106" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgE1tU6lvhKDXayb_KGvGSfznussM47yceDrlbxwVPLlU8H1s0LMN8JbKVWtUYDi06tutHS2BjJg6ykLDUBoZNafVw0pAzjQqjObMsPPrKUYS0vPUTQDR65zuINt4FddO5fxg_8DMd3rZZV/s1600-h/sc0003577c.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgE1tU6lvhKDXayb_KGvGSfznussM47yceDrlbxwVPLlU8H1s0LMN8JbKVWtUYDi06tutHS2BjJg6ykLDUBoZNafVw0pAzjQqjObMsPPrKUYS0vPUTQDR65zuINt4FddO5fxg_8DMd3rZZV/s320/sc0003577c.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5187752200856620418" /></a><br /> Here is some more saved on the computer from last year.

I found these paper puppets saved on the old computer so I figured I might as well post them. Last semester I was in experimental animation class and the midterm assignment was paper cut out animation. These 2 clowns are the old cuban fisherman characters in my effort. I'm a little happy with the design of the little guy but I could never come up with a good design for the tall guy. They are watercolored so I'll apologize in advance for the crappiness, I'm new to that medium. Since it is paper cut out I figured it would lend itself to being a little more "designy" so these are more angular and flat than my normal style. They were eventually cut out and taped to wire armatures and animated.christopherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18371010848732985671noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2243939288293447914.post-28284328860171699372008-04-09T18:35:00.000-07:002008-04-09T18:59:32.080-07:00Sketchbook Stuff<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-bSVlpt-LHOOzWktilC6mjr13uRGMlTptYPjcH5kyV5FeyT0mTh_8JqS7eFjhdbNHS814zYb8YwXloh8g1_GBJy8lPxiq4rPKlPKEF2ihdP6ZQ7f0Bjy8vpakz3joI1JMz7Ew16-zseyf/s1600-h/portfolioanimal1.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-bSVlpt-LHOOzWktilC6mjr13uRGMlTptYPjcH5kyV5FeyT0mTh_8JqS7eFjhdbNHS814zYb8YwXloh8g1_GBJy8lPxiq4rPKlPKEF2ihdP6ZQ7f0Bjy8vpakz3joI1JMz7Ew16-zseyf/s320/portfolioanimal1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5187430374662163746" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhmczEkSpWBysFo6R7-pgAvsNbg2Ek4fBiAIQdtcVcfh9WspHhyphenhyphendd8pFtSqPFk_91mVznFUQ4rQQVDWXl1ReuJflRkS_edGeACm2VRNEP6h0N1gmy-PP-Omfs2arploAqnOP8LJg1d5jW8B/s1600-h/portfoliosketch2.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhmczEkSpWBysFo6R7-pgAvsNbg2Ek4fBiAIQdtcVcfh9WspHhyphenhyphendd8pFtSqPFk_91mVznFUQ4rQQVDWXl1ReuJflRkS_edGeACm2VRNEP6h0N1gmy-PP-Omfs2arploAqnOP8LJg1d5jW8B/s320/portfoliosketch2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5187430383252098354" /></a><br />Wow, it's been a long time since I posted anything. I have continued to study and copy from old cartoons but can never find the time to scan them and post them on the old blog :( Anyways here are some sketches from old sketchbooks. I love drawing from life but lately I've been struggling to find a comfortable style to draw in that is both appealing and economical enough for me to capture the model quickly. I'm usually torn between my studies in figure drawing and anatomy class to do more finished, detailed drawings and my more cartoony, exaggerated natural drawing style. Hopefully I'll just keep drawing and it will work itself out.christopherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18371010848732985671noreply@blogger.com0
