Its so sunny, I went to the Portrait Gallery.

I went out! Instead of sketching digitally, I took my sketchbook and went to the Portrait Gallery where I met up with a friend 🙂

It looked really nice and I had the occasion to sketch one of these old paintings from the 1700s. This character was particularly striking. Every time I take a stroll at the Portrait gallery I go and visit him. He has this pose and this smirk on his face suggesting that he could seduce any woman. The face and the hands weren’t very detailed, you would find that the clothes on the other hand are so precise (I find that very strange). The cloths’ textures and the colors are just so good. The painting itself is so immense. I really like it 🙂

Creature/Human Study Monday 4

So. I was gone for a few weeks. Mostly taking a break and travelling. I went to visit Malaga and Granada and it was absolutely awesome. I use to think Edinburgh was the best city ever but now its in competition with Granada. Anyways, while waiting for the bus at the station over there (In Granada), I went ahead and sketched a little. It is not much, I was a bit out of practice too but we are back with the “Artist Timetable!”- 😉 Human Study
