Horse Portrait

Horse portrait drawing I did as a demo for my animal portrait drawing class at Watts Atelier. First time drawing a horse. It was a challenge but I am happy with the results. Teaching the class was a lot of fun. I felt like my students all came away with a good piece to be proud of. I have a separate site for just my pet portraits now, check it out at http://www.mattdrawspets.com/

Long Figure Drawing

New long figure drawing that I recently finished. Really happy with the way this turned out. I feel like each times I do a new long figure drawing, it's better than the last one. I am still proud of the last one I did, the guy with the huge beard. I submitted it to the ARC Salon, so I am hoping it gets in. These long drawings are fun to do, even though they take a long time to do and can be very tedious, but its a great way to focus on edges and anatomy, both literal and exaggerated.
