Artist's Comments
I know they say that gesture drawings belong in scraps, but in some cases I think gesture drawings can stand alone as a piece of work. It's not always just a "doodle".
Anyway, this series of quick gestures drawings was done in my Life Drawing II course. Our models are almost always female (in my LDII course, we actually had the same female model the vast majority of the semester), so it was a nice change having a male model...who wasn't 80 years old... And yes, I've had to draw the old guy (his name is Chester, lol). He's a good model but he makes me nervous because he stares back... *o.0 This model is this middle-age-ish guy apparently known by the upperclassmen art majors as "Yoga Steve." He's hilarious to draw from because when he transitions from one pose to another he makes these grand, swooping movements. Even his still poses are really dramatic. It's like watching Kabuki Theater...naked Kabuki Theater... OH yeah, and during the breaks he secludes himself in the corner and stands on his head. THANK GOD he wears shorts when he does that. lol. One more thing (sorry!). This is actually a photo of the image (it's too big to scan) so it is a little blurry... Done with an ink pen on newsprint 1-5 minutes per figure (I forget how long it was exactly) |

 reports, 1d 22h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community. |

Then this other female model...she can't stop talking. She'll like regale us with her sordid tales from the bar scene and ask if we've watched the latest episode of whatever show while posing. We're all used to it by now, but in the beginning everyone was like "You're not supposed to talk! You're supposed to just stand there and be naked!"
Thanks for the comment!

Yoga Steve sounds freaking awesome though, i would love for the models to be really out there, it would make it less awkward for everybody i think. I had a guy once that used some props, one was a toy gun that he pushed a button on every so often and it would make a silly sound, haha, it was funny.
