Feet

I had previously found it quite difficult to draw feet so I thought I'd have a go practising on myself.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Figure Drawings

On one Tuesday a couple of friends and I went along to a figure drawing session in Florence. Here are some of the sketches I produced.



 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

At the Academy

 

These are a couple of sketches I did at the Florence Academy of Art studios (where I was studying for a month) whilst I was waiting around in the break times.

 

 

 

 

 

View from the Uffizzi

Landscapes and street views are not my speciality, so I thought I'd give this quick sketch a go.

The Guy with the Dreads

Dreadlocks are really hard to draw. Especially when the guy keeps moving.

Street Artists of Florence

 

It's impossible to miss these guys who sit around the main tourist hotspots with their easels and charcoal, waiting for the vulnerable tourist to come and ask for a portrait to be done of them.

The guy on the right noticed me drawing him just after I finished, and came up to me and said 'Namaste!'. No, I am not Indian. But thanks.

People watching in museums

Below are three double page spreads I did at different museums/galleries I visited in Florence.

Random Observations

A few random sketches done over various days and places. Just filling up space!

Waiting for the Bus

 

 

I've just got back from Florence, so excuse the overload of posts!

 

I rented a room a bit outside of the centre of Florence and so had to take a 20 minute bus journey to get into the centre. This double page is from the wait one day.
