Jean’s Sketchbook – Short & Sweet

Jean’s Sketchbook – Short & Sweet

A new semester has started and Jean is certainly off to bigger and better things. However I wanted to take a moment and share her sketchbook with you. This sketchbook video is really short and sweet. It should take you no time to flow through the pages.

Jean was a pleasure to have in class. I really enjoyed seeing her skill level grow throughout the 2017-18 academic years. Jean has a bold style, I really do like the eclectic feel of her art. She is not afraid to take chances with different mediums in her sketchbook. I encourage you to do the same.

Alice’s Sketchbook Continued

The Spring semester ended back in April. However I’ve had Alice’s sketchbook video on my iPhone for sometime now. Alice was an absolute pleasure to have as a student in class.

Alice’s improvement over the entire academic year was pretty incredible. She really is an example of what hard work and devotion can do for one’s portfolio of drawings. Improve them immensely.

I wish Alice all the best as she moves forward with her education in the Animation Department at the School of Visual Arts.

Alice thank you so much for sharing your sketchbook. Thank you so much for being such a great student! Definitely stop by in the future, I would love to see what you are working on!

Ren’s Sketchbook – Short and Sweet

Ren’s Sketchbook – Short and Sweet

I wanted to take a moment here to share with you Ren’s sketchbook. Ren is currently enrolled in my foundation drawing class at the School of Visual Arts in Manhattan New York.

I didn’t film too many sketchbooks last semester best Ren’s was a must. She arrives each week to class ready to work. Ren can just sit and draw for long periods of time, no distractions, no lack of focus.

Ren is certainly a model student who is really focused on improving her character design through life drawing.

I look forward to seeing more improvement from her this semester. Thanks for checking out her sketchbook.

Unfortunately Ren has no social media available at this time.

Sabrina’s Sketchbook

Sabrina’s Sketchbook

Sabrina is a student currently enrolled in my foundation drawing class at the School of Visual Arts in Manhattan New York. Sabrina is truly one of the nicest people I’ve ever met. She is truly a joy to have in class.

She is always laughing and smiling. It shows in her work. Her work is very fun to engage with. Her life drawings are big and bold. I love when she draws with a China Marker. Sabrina’s drawings have a ton of motion and energy.

Her sense of color is really cool. I really like how she gives pages in her sketchbook a color theme. Sabrina draws some really interesting shaped characters which is another attribute about her work that I enjoy.

When I check the homework each week Sabrina’s drawings always stand out. I alway gravitate towards her work. She puts a lot of pencil mileage into every sketch she works on.

Thanks so much Sabrina for sharing your sketchbook. Thank you for your fun attitude in class.

Jack’s Sketchbooks

Jack’s Sketchbooks

I as gear up for a new semester of teaching at the School of Visual Arts my mind brings me back to Jack. Every new semester brings the uncertainty of new students. Last year I was blessed with an amazing class of twenty-one incredible students. Jack was the different student. At first glance I wasn’t sure what he was all about. But as the weeks progressed I became to realize he was in a class all his own.

The energy Jack brings to the table is truly incredible. Jack definitely got the most feedback on YouTube when I posted his first sketchbook. People loved him or really hated him. The comments were out of control.

He handled the negative comments like a trooper. I told him to screw the negative comments and stick to what he loves. That is the only way to succeed and have fun as an artist.

As you know I’m as traditional as they come with my style. I love realistic figurative art. However, I also love different. Jack’s work is certainly different. As you glance through his sketchbook what is the one thing that inspires you?

Is it the way he uses color? Is it the way he fills every page? Or is it Jack’s crazy 1970’s hair style?

Either way I’m so grateful to have students like Jack in my class. I wonder what the new class vibe will be like this September? Who will be the new Jack?

Leave a comment below letting us know what you think about his work.

Oh, and do what you love and screw the haters.
