Some sketches

Unfortately I can't afford to do 1 evening a week life drawing classes at the moment, but as an alternative I've been sketching from photographs that I find on the net. I just think of a topic (sports are my fav at present) and look up images for that. As it's now the winter olympics, I chose snowboarding and ice skating for today. Oh yeah, I also managed to get some Col-erase pencils via ebay (Amazon was lame and didn't want to ship such things to Australia), so I've been using those to draw.

I think my drawings aren't anything special yet, but I am aiming to get more confident at capturing gestures. I think once I read and do the exercises in the Wayne Gilbert book, I'll be a lot better.
