that magic instants captured in the chip of a camera till now, when lights, shadows and shapes try to be, once again, in the illusion of a painting but keeping the remembrance of that moment.

she, at the garden
another painting without a previous drawing, just zones of colours, i'm trying to leave details aside as much as i possibly can. this one is from a photo i took a few weeks ago.
feel free to leave any comments, thanks in advance! have a nice day.

sketch in pen
this afternoon, during the class... one student, who moved all the time but tried to capture the essential, later after the class i kept adding more pen to differentiate values

sketches after previous sketch
i did these at home, after the sketch i did during the class. in these two i added alcohol to the pen to wash it. in the first i added some more details, even after i washed. used a blue ballpen. in the second one i tried to keep as many details aside as i could.

in this one i used vine charcoal, a tortillon and a kneaded eraser to make some different values.

more sketches
some more sketches, though these are newer, from a couple of weeks ago, trying to make them more geometrical and with less details, i'd want them even simpler than these but it's difficult.

portrait sketch
cleaning piles of papers i just found this old sketch i had made out of a drawing magazine photo, i guess i did it about 4 years ago. i see his eyes aren't lined either, apparently it's something i should put more attention as i did it too in my last selfportrait.
