Marissa Gomez strikes again!

Marissa is one of my favorite models. I only wish I had more time to draw her.

Nice drawings! I especially like the 2nd and 3rd ones! How close was the 3rd sketch to the pose she was in? Always cool to see action poses from a life drawing session. :)

Wow, she really gets into character, looks like a lot of fun to draw :)

Fantastic sketches as always Dave, super inspiring!

Hello,

thanks for your comments. We always have fun with her.

Marmax,

the third pose was actually very close to the real thing. She tied a rope to one of the student's drawing horse and pulled! The only thing I added was the over lap and spfx in the pose.

hey dave,
argh, I missed the class, I love how the models are always in costume/character.

One of the cool things about a good gesture is that it can pack a lot of information into very few lines. I think it's all there in these drawings: action, weight, attitude, and so on.

It's been so long since I've done gestures that I need to get back into it. I've been spending most of time learning how to do better caricatures.

Seems like there is never a shortage of things to learn!

WOW! Yours drawings are AWESOME!

I have been looking at your work for some time now in the Walt Stanchfield notes and had no idea you had a blog! I have learned SOOOO much from you and your fellow sketchers and have even started leading my own costumed drawing class at Nickelodeon! You have been a great inspiration to me! Thankyou.

I will be back here often.

thanks for the tips on the ACME transmission, Dave! you're an inspiration. and the tip about drawing a silhouette of the audience's heads on a board to see screen size relation is brilliant!
