11.23.22 Lunchtime drawing: The Jefferson Market Library's clock tower, painted in a rush, then I made it to my appointment and found out it's actually remote, then rushed home and hopped on a computer. Swipe through to see a “studio” painting I made of the same library.

Also, now's a good time to invite you to an art market I'm participating in at the Jefferson Market Library. I'll have prints of my NYPL paintings, cards, and also offer "fine-art" portraits done on the spot. Hope to see you there! -Nick

Art 11: Life Drawing 1. Last couple of classes, we worked on blind contour line drawing, opposite hand drawing, and stick drawings! Some students are getting the importance of these exercises as the drawing is about seeing, not just looking at the model! @liupost @liupostart @cacd.liu #lifedrawing #blindcontourdrawing #oppositehanddrawing #figuredrawing #stickdrawing #loveteaching #loveteachingdrawing (at LIU (Long Island University)) https://www.instagram.com/p/Coe6DWtrSF0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Been a little slack with sharing paintings lately but I have been very prolific with creating. Sometimes I just don’t feel gazing at a phone posting or seeing posts from others. But here are a couple pieces, plus me on a mountain 🏔 during a hike the other day. • • • • • • #expressionistfigure #ambidextrousartist #expressionismart #blindcontourdrawings #blindcontourdrawing #semiblindcontour #blindcontour #nudefiguredrawing #travellingartist #abstractexpression #nudeart #mixedmediaartwork #continuouslinedrawing #linefigure #thescream_art #abstrakto #bodypositive #bodypositiveart #bopoart #bopoartist #allbodiesaregoodbodies #bodiesofshapes #bopomovement #bodydiversity #mentalhealth #lovetheskinyourin #selfloveart #allboobsaregoodboobs #loveyournakedbody (at Skaftafell - Vatnajökull National Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2CNNrMgdAS/?igshid=mma9jzpo0kz3

Quick Sketches & Gestural Drawings

This weeks illustration task was to experiment with blind contour, continuous lines and gestural drawings. I have used black biro pen for all of these illustrations.

Blind Contour Drawings: To create these drawings I looked at a photograph of myself and tryed to draw out what I could see without looking at the paper or what I was doing, I attempted this method four times creating completely different looks for each one. I didnt particularly like this drawing style as it didnt allow me to create an accuarate reperesentation of a character or person however, I think that it is still a fun and unique way of drawing. Continuous Line Drawings: For this group of drawings I kept my pen on the paper until the illustration was finished, this resulted in a continuous line drawing. I focused these illustrations on my family and tryed to capture as much detail as I possibly could. Gestural Drawings: For this set of drawings, I used a time limit which ranged from 1-10 minutes. A lot of quick and rough lines were used to create the basic character outline. I took inspiration from a photograph of my grandad for these illustrations, focusing on his posture and body shape.

By experimenting with all of these quick drawing techniques I have learnt that sometimes simplicity can be more effective than including lots of detail, I paticularly liked the gestural drawings technique and I am planning on using this style of illustration again for future projects.

As I was doing these three drawings, I learned a lot about myself and what I can work on as an artist. I gave myself about 5 minutes for each (though I forgot to set a timer all three times so it was really an approximation), and found that even though I started with large lines to fill the space, they got smaller as I went on. This tells me that I struggle with spatial awareness, as I had no clue that my lines were getting smaller or were drifting from their original locations.

Blind Contour Collage #1 - Day 302 #yearofdailyart #TheArtOfEverything - 4 minute blind contour drawing (just looking at the object I’m drawing without looking at the paper) in ink, + 29 min. of collage time, + 9 more minutes of finish-it-up-this-is-really-all-the-time you have left time - Have been taking an awesome online drawing class put on by @theartlocalatx ‘s @sarahfaganart and @reneelai14 , and we’ve been doing blind contour drawings. So I thought I’d start with a BC, then respond to the marks in a blind form of collage. Not that I wasn’t watching where I placed things, but was really trying to access that intuitive muscle used in blind contour drawings to decide which scrap to pick and where to place it... - - - - - - - - - - #pdxartist#blindcontour#blindcontourdrawing#blindcontourcollage#abstractcollage#collagedrawing (at Portland, Oregon) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBZwZGrBAYu/?igshid=vyr8r3tp7yfi
