Day 7: Free day (Bus Stop and Library)

I went to the bus stop, and found out it's a good place to draw professional-looking business people, as I was there around the 4-6 time.  I used the brush pen for all of this, trying to make more dynamic and stylized drawing.  It later started to get too rainy, so I finished up drawing people at the Metropolitan library.

Warmup.

This was fun.  I enjoyed "pushing it " a little.
 
I enjoyed these too.

The guy on the lower left is the first I attempted to stylize more.  I was trying to capture his mannerisms.

Lots of messenger bags.  Apparently briefcases are "out".

  1. These are really cool! The last one looks amazing! Kind of like a stamp or a story book illustration in some sense.

  2. Kirsten,
    Some of these are brilliant. As we discussed, the pen forces you to commit to a line - so sensitivity is key here... and while most of these poses are "pedestrian" (since you're drawing pedestrians) they still have a nice gestural quality to them.
    The female pose in page 4, pages 5, 6 and the final portrait in profile are really strong.
