Life drawing with tech

Published by at 3:46 pm under sketchbook,tools & tech

Today, instead of going to aikido, I went to CCAE’s open figure drawing. This is something I do a couple of times a year. It’s a fairly robust group, often drawing a crowd of more than 20 artists. The models are hit or miss, but you get 4 hours for $11, which is a pretty good deal.

This was the first time I’ve brought my tablet PC to a life drawing session. Overall, it worked quite well — though as I suspected, it made me very conspicuous (which in this context is not something I like).

I also brought traditional materials like ink, charcoal, and gouache, and the first few pieces here are traditional. The rest are digital.

    It is lovely to see the fruits of someone’s labors at one of our open studios.
