Last years drawing class was pretty brilliant. A lot of great friendships were made last year in class. Joie was a student that just had so much creativity. She loved the short stuff, hated the long drawings. As a matter of fact Joie really hated doing any drawing that was longer than a twenty minute pose.
Over the years I have learned that being able to work on short gesture drawings is just as important as the long stuff. If you just work on long academic type drawings that could lead to stiffness. The short duration gesture type drawings that Joie loves so much loosen your work up.
Hopefully over the years Joie will acquire a taste for that balance of working on short gesture drawing and long duration drawings.
Umm, somethings tells me Joie will stick to her short stuff. Her creativity is really inspiring. Her energy is inspiring as well. I trust you will enjoy looking through her sketchbook no matter what style of drawing you like.
I really enjoy this video amazingly beautiful sketching thank you for sharing have a creative colorful day
Joie’s sketchbook is full of very unique methods of drawing. I really like how she puts colour into each separate sketch; a contrast of variation with sticky notes and the like, (especially the kitty stickers).
Thanks for sharing. She’s inspired me to think more “out-of-the-box.”
Lovely… one of the better ones.
I loved Joie’s sketchbook. I was so inspired to try new things. Thank you Joie.
Thank you all for taking the time to look at Joie’s sketchbook. She is an exceptional artist.
