Darkness Falls . . .




These 5 minute sketches are examples that I used while teaching, discussing how it's most important to create a story or a story idea that will make your gesture drawings more personal and less "figure drawing" or capturing a "pose." Here you can in these images, they have taken the model and created a character with a dark background that should leave the viewer asking to know more. All in time for All Hallow's Eve coming around the corner . . .
