Market Square

Another drawing from a recent drawing excursion in downtown Portsmouth, New Hampshire. This one was drawn with a Pilot V5 (which they now make with a retractable point). As I mentioned in earlier posts, one of the fun things about the Pilot V5 is that the ink is not waterproof, so you can get some interesting wash effects if you apply a Niji Waterbrush.

Atomic Trash

The drawings above are from the latest Portland, Maine edition of the Dr. Sketchy’s Anti-Art School. Our models for the evening were the performance art duo Atomic Trash, who put on a great show. The only downside was that the ladies offered so much great material that it was hard to do them justice in such short poses (typically, two to eight minutes each).

Oh, and for the curious, in the drawing on the bottom left the model is holding a baby narwhal. I think that basically explains itself. If not, let’s just say you had to be there.

Two drawings, same pose. The top one was done in about ten minutes with ink and brush. The bottom one was done in about five minutes with a pilot V5 and a watercolor brush pen.
