Sketchblog and ASIFA Drawings Return

I admit it; I've put so much time and energy into Benthic over the last few months I have seriously neglected the sketchblog. At times I've seriously neglected the sketching itself, admittedly, since I'm drawing all the time anyway. But thats all over now! I won't bother catching up the end of 2010 since I want to be showing current work, so here is the first session I've attended of the 2011 Winter Sessions.

I know most of you are probably thinking, "Oh great, more naked people." But these naked people kind of have hands now. And those bottom two pictures? Those are my two minute poses. The ones that I used to complain about being unscannable squiggles I literally could not show? Bwahahaha!

More work from this current session. I'm fairly happy with several of these. This season has been good to me when I've been there, but I've missed a few more sessions than I like to. I may have to make up for it with some life drawing from elsewhere.

ASIFA - Fall 2010, Part 1

This season I finally started getting some of my 1-2 minute gesture drawings to actually scan! Here are a couple, along with one of the standard renderings from the 3-5 minute poses I usually post. I've missed a few sessions this fall but I still have a decent amount of stuff to post.

This most recent sketchbook of mine is slightly water damaged from being in my bag with my trunks and towels during this past season of Inner Tube Water Polo. The good news is that our team won the league championship, the bad news is that scanning out of it is that much harder. I'm suffering through it here for the next couple weeks and then I should be ready to move onto the new sketchbook.

ASIFA - Summer 2010, Part 3

A few more drawings from Summer. Both of these were actually great sets, but drawn mostly back to back so that they don't scan well at all. These are what was salvageable.

The current sessions have been pretty great the past couple of weeks, looking forward to putting stuff up.

I realized a few days ago that we're three weeks into the Fall 2010 sessions of Naked People Superchallenge, I only put up one lousy post of material from Summer. Honestly, there were a lot of bad weeks through Summer (this may have been the craziest summer of the last five years for me), but I have another couple posts worth of decent stuff.

And the life drawing returns! Last week is the last session of the Summer so I need to stop slacking on the posting. I was really all over the place this summer, but there's some good stuff to show. Enjoy.

ASIFA - Spring 2010, Part 4

Wrapping up the previous season today, with the rest of the ladies from the spring.

ASIFA - Spring 2010, Part 3

Naked People Super Challenge Summer 2010 starts up this Thursday, so I better post all the Spring stuff while the getting is good. Today is the "dudeity" post. ALSO. If you're reading these posts on Facebook, they're posting over insanely late. Like, several days after the fact. Now that I have this rolling again, coming straight over to the blog is probably the hot line.

ASIFA - Spring 2010, Part 2

I have been stupidly lazy about scanning the last couple of months and my sketch blog has gotten a little neglected. Being the party animal I am, I spent the better part of this Friday night scanning in about four posts worth of material. Without further adieu, enjoy these naked ladies.

Alrighty, heres some work from this new set of sessions. Brought back some of the ball point pen stuff this time around.
