EDM challenge # 115 (2)

EDM 115 draw a shopping cart, originally uploaded by dibujandoarte.

this is the one my mother has to buy at near shops, but doesn't usually use it. at supermarkets they have their own, as usual everywhere for the great posts i've seen. i sketched the other one, but the wheel was out of place. I tried with this one but the perspective looks strange. I used a pigmented marker and color pencils.

EDM challenge # 76

Challenge # 76 was to draw some flowers or foliage. the first one belongs to a corner in the backyard. i did it a couple of days ago, and though it's autumn already there are still lots of flowers. the second one are some buds growing in a vase with just water in the kitchen.

EDM challenge # 16

hahaha. i don't know if this a valid entry. EDM challenge # 16 was to draw a favourite tool. i have a few tools which i use to bind books, but i guess this pen is my favourite one. i did the drawing with a similar one while this one was posing especially for me, and the best: "for free", hahahaha.

EDM challenge # 11

the idea was to draw one's glasses but i don't wear any so i did these i found on the kitchen table.

life sketches

not much to comment on these. just made lots of scribblings and quick sketches while the others were painting. i chose these two among all.

life drawing

last week i started to read "the natural way to draw". i'm trying to do the exercises proposed. so last saturday during the class i took a few minutes to try to put this in practice. i did several tries, non-showables, hahaha, but this one is the last i did, in which i tried not to look at the paper i was drawing on; it's very difficult no to do that when one is used to doing it, but in this one i looked a few times just to know where i was putting the pencil (dry marker-staedtler - black). i'm geting into a new world with this

NOTE: after several comments I received, I wanted to explain I didn't do this drawing as a contour, but gesture drawing or quick study of about 1'30"-2 min

EDM challenge # 112

"something fresh"

for me this eau de cologne means fresh.

during the summer, on very hot days i have a shower (several a day sometimes) then putting some of this cologne makes me feel fresh. even though it's very hot. as you can see it's almost finished, like summer here, so now in autumn i'll buy another one with other smell, not sooo fresh.
