Skin & Bones





















Wet ink...

I've been into drawing teeth and the human skeleton as of late. Here's a drawing consisting of both.
It took me a great deal of courage-building to trace over the original pencil sketch with a sharpie for fear of ruining it. You can see the shakiness of my hand, but I think it turned out okay.

I have a few drawings backlogged and waiting to be finished, then inked. Here's to procrastinating doing schoolwork.

Staff Head

















































Here's a random drawing. Reminiscent of the Tenacious D's Pick of Destiny, or perhaps the head of Skeletor's staff.

If I may toot my own horn (no pun intended) for a moment, I would like to draw (no pun intended) your attention to the detail (second picture). I am quite pleased (... impressed) with the texture and effect to which I gave the underside of the horns. I am very new at this whole drawing thing, (or, to use a pro-wrestling term, "green"), so please forgive my unwarranted conceit.

My Heart is in Your Hands

























I made a quick sketch of this in the margins of my notes to keep me from dozing off in class.  My friend looked at it, turned to me and said "I hope you don't kill anyone."

I have been meaning to colour in the "shading"/"shadows" (whatever you want to call it) but never got around to doing it. I had moved on to other things.

This is my first heart I've drawn. I think it's pretty decent for a first attempt. I should experiment with heart-drawing more.
