A photo in bad lighting of more jacket, hair and more details in the face. I’ll have a better shot in the morning after my next go with it.

“Jump!”, Update #1

February 22nd, 2008 · No Comments

I didn’t make it into work today because I finally caught whatever it was thats been going around the office, spending most of the morning crashed out on the couch in front of the television. I started feeling substantially more human by this afternoon, so started on a new drawing.

This new one is a bit of a departure from my normal style as it incorporates the entire figure in the drawing. I’ll admit it feels a bit strange to be working on something where the face isn’t the main focus, but thats part of goal number five. :)

The reference photo was taken by my Mom of my daughter while she was playing outside and caught her in mid air as she was practicing her “jumpin”.
