A little sketching from a video...

I've been wanting to watch this series of artist interviews that Danny Gregory is posting on his blog. Yesterday I finally got to watch one and today I watched a second one. These are artists that are featured in Danny's book "An Illustrated Journey" which I've been reading my way through. I did cheat a little and stop the video so I could draw from a still shot. Hey, one step at a time! :)

This interview was with Roz Stendahl. I was hesitant to mention her name because my portrait skills leave a lot to be desired. I hope I don't have to get permission first? (Let me know if I'm breaking any laws!)

Anyway, here's my rendition of Roz...

 

...and if you've seen her you know this looks nothing like her! Sorry, Roz!

 

 

And this is my quick sketch of Danny Gregory in his little box in the corner of the Skype screen.

 

 

I actually like the way this little sketch turned out more than the larger more time-consuming drawing of Roz. I have a hard time loosening up enough to do quick sketches, so I was pleased with this one.

 

I'm off to post this on Twenty Minute Challenge!

 

If you're curious to see some of these videos you can find them on Danny's blog here!

 

Shalom on this glorious Palm Sunday!



Jane LaFazio Interviews Danny Gregory...interesting!

I found this really interesting and I plan to watch more of his videos on YouTube! :D



I found this video on Danny's YouTube channel. It's a two part video about Danny Gregory and Richard Bell whose Wild West Yorkshire Nature Diary blog is on my blog list! It sure was fun to watch these two talk about their sketching. And, Pom, they exchange drawings in the mail just like us!! Who knew other people did that? Hee, hee! ;)

Just wanted to share this new gold mine of sketching videos I plan to savor in the future!

Shalom!
