Image 80 took less than 30 minutes
Image 81 too about 10 minutes max.
Image 82 was about a 30 minute doodle
Image 83 took about 30 minuted to draw.
Image 84 took about 30 minutes. It is a continuous non-crossing line drawn around a bunch of circles.
Image 85 took about 10 minutes.
Quickies are new to me because I'm used to spending
many hours, days, and even weeks on one drawing. I prefer to
draw on larger paper, at least 14" x 17," but that size
doesn't fit on my scanner. So, learning to draw fast AND
small is quite a challenge.
Anyway, I drew Zack's ears first and they have a solid feel.
Last was his skin, and I couldn't figure out how to make it
go with the ears yet still show his fact. His ears overpower
the rest of him.
ZACK IS BACK! I tried darkening his face to see if
that would help. It does!
Image 95 is yet another very silly drawing that turned out
entirely different than intended. But the, that's what
doodles do.
Image 98 was another "Just for Fun" drawing.
Although he doesn't have human type hands, you'd be
surprised at how deftly he can use his arms to accomplish
most tasks.
Do you recognize what his logo is?
Image 100 is a simple doodle, however, it took a couple of
hours to draw due to the detail.
Image 106 is a definite quickie that took no more
than 30 minutes. I'm fascinated by silhouettes and the fact
that people design such intricate ones with just a pair of
scissors.
Personally, I'll take a pen.
Had a real surprise with this one. I originally tried to
make it a girl with an upturned nose. Except for the nose,
it looks like a profile of my son!
Image 112 is an experiment with oil pastel sticks I've had
sitting in my art drawer for two years. I find the oil has
an advantage over the regular pastels because it isn't
dusty. Even so, this will probably be the only doodle I do
with pastel because I find less and less control as the
stick wears. It was just a guess where the color would end
up. The doodle only took about 10 minutes.
Image 125 was a simple pencil sketch, then outlined
with pen and gone over with a brush tip. A daring venture
for me because brush tips aren't as easily controlled. Time
involved was about 30 minutes.
Image 146 is a quick doodle done in about an hour. Most of
the time was spent coloring the checks in the middle of the
vase.
