Exercise (1) Quick Studies. Project (2) Proportion.

I had the chance to have two different models on this particular day... so I took it. 

I tried to keep all the lines free and loose, starting near the middle (as suggested) but making small marks before, where I estimated key landmarks might be, to avoid going off the edge of my paper or something. 

Charcoal pencil.

Charcoal pencil and white conté on blue paper.

Pencil and white conté on a light brown paper.

Watercolour sketch, on a yellow support.  
I might have gone a bit over the two minute mark on some of theses sketches. 

Whiteboard marker on a yellow paper.
Quite like this ten minute drawing, it seems to be reasonably in proportion and the black looks nice on the yellow. 
The crossed leg seems to work, and it has a soft feeling to it, due to the marker nearly running out.



Drawn in watercolour.

Whiteboard marker and wash.

Watercolour pencil and wash.

Fineliner.

Fineliner.
This one was more like five minutes.

Ballpoint pen with black and white conté on yellow paper. 
I like this other ten minute sketch less, the head is too big, the legs are too small and crossed leg doesn't come towards you enough.
