If you already have a grasp for the figure and want to take it further or just brush up please consider taking the class. The instructor is incredible and she is moving to NYC soon so this is the last chance to take this class.</p><div><br /> </div><br /><p align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCBCtjR1NQ0ffJPrtbgC05kbkx6d-eo97eQn-3IyaqIJwUDByFloGZ_Cl_0g3F0NNFW7M6V1zm9ordcSNJcUWubZxsjMqpMpVnhaJAFaaC533sCrdNOduAw8Vp5-9lTb6WMXNFlxNlZq4/s1600-h/DSC_0880.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5431961562286923650" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCBCtjR1NQ0ffJPrtbgC05kbkx6d-eo97eQn-3IyaqIJwUDByFloGZ_Cl_0g3F0NNFW7M6V1zm9ordcSNJcUWubZxsjMqpMpVnhaJAFaaC533sCrdNOduAw8Vp5-9lTb6WMXNFlxNlZq4/s400/DSC_0880.jpg" style="WIDTH: 400px; HEIGHT: 268px; CURSOR: hand" /></a></p><div align="center">Big lips, big hair.<br /><br /></div><p align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiXi6YsgXIHxSrDkxJwKDCguNJ0sljRDEjNy_y_DvBwKOVjgattCT9cDTgmC7qwSNORfnhqFe8puwDrljpgp0xmaab4B-iVc75oW6ukicBevqrVOz3PcrSMaTIUjHhroOfI9nNKE7a_OGc/s1600-h/DSC_0881.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5431961555437296066" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiXi6YsgXIHxSrDkxJwKDCguNJ0sljRDEjNy_y_DvBwKOVjgattCT9cDTgmC7qwSNORfnhqFe8puwDrljpgp0xmaab4B-iVc75oW6ukicBevqrVOz3PcrSMaTIUjHhroOfI9nNKE7a_OGc/s400/DSC_0881.jpg" style="WIDTH: 268px; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" /></a></p><div align="center">This one is my fave.<br /><br /><br /></div><p align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFPfeKELwbH2UiPSoKhl6z2Ekh_AVCak_OU4GkPIFoBNQTZTvgV4Gv4SpIYA3hAvR2WEN2l3a-61WiUbTZpua_8n8uYqrR2gYZM39UYupnIZIPUI5j_IleAtxjpgqgG4FgrNsz2W1xtuc/s1600-h/DSC_0882.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5431961552096318066" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFPfeKELwbH2UiPSoKhl6z2Ekh_AVCak_OU4GkPIFoBNQTZTvgV4Gv4SpIYA3hAvR2WEN2l3a-61WiUbTZpua_8n8uYqrR2gYZM39UYupnIZIPUI5j_IleAtxjpgqgG4FgrNsz2W1xtuc/s400/DSC_0882.jpg" style="WIDTH: 400px; HEIGHT: 268px; CURSOR: hand" /></a></p><p align="center">Some illustrations for my "drawing on your bag" idea.

Fashion Illustration Sketches

<div align="center">Felt the urge to sketch a bit yesterday.  Usually I like to use a really sharp pencil or charcoal but all I had in the car was a ball point pen.  I hate drawing with a ball point pen--which is exactly why I decided to use it.  Sometimes when you force yourself to use a material you don't like you can get some great results.<br /></div><p align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJ-0z_3pZNMK9tzkwtvK_XqhUAhWvQl00ULKoVIWzRlm-JWu8Jh22cUTvT70lT6Xei3H4r1pnmFR-IHMTERhTBthjHhMRtT3eSFdB5oOAvfdUEhN6apK37y3aBIrSV6JlrEFq2wQ0Vv-U/s1600-h/DSC_0842.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5431043086738287042" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJ-0z_3pZNMK9tzkwtvK_XqhUAhWvQl00ULKoVIWzRlm-JWu8Jh22cUTvT70lT6Xei3H4r1pnmFR-IHMTERhTBthjHhMRtT3eSFdB5oOAvfdUEhN6apK37y3aBIrSV6JlrEFq2wQ0Vv-U/s400/DSC_0842.jpg" style="WIDTH: 400px; HEIGHT: 313px; CURSOR: hand" /></a></p><br /><br /><br /><div align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiKENpzUxX1IBUSZGDO2RPZjsHczW34eX1ehF7AgIguQI6ZonfR90DCBWu8LhfGGPYlklteGD6LAP14GXW8K2uYjxYKFdmFcmwO6RhGKahELKnrlD-KBE4JhFnqw9GT0UbS2kAJOypq8yo/s1600-h/DSC_0843.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5431043083266324626" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiKENpzUxX1IBUSZGDO2RPZjsHczW34eX1ehF7AgIguQI6ZonfR90DCBWu8LhfGGPYlklteGD6LAP14GXW8K2uYjxYKFdmFcmwO6RhGKahELKnrlD-KBE4JhFnqw9GT0UbS2kAJOypq8yo/s400/DSC_0843.jpg" style="WIDTH: 223px; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEia6uSDPBKXELR360lJcYC1M6mgLR_nyT1tvkTFbjOVXVOl3sGTQO-1t1GixdIBIubc8TPAXrYcw4q_51PCHKTJ9gHcTzjHqojlD-OuU1E9GKiDXogk52pEz3H5qBGdNwsa3BNOce7scI8/s1600-h/DSC_0841.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5431043161190104626" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEia6uSDPBKXELR360lJcYC1M6mgLR_nyT1tvkTFbjOVXVOl3sGTQO-1t1GixdIBIubc8TPAXrYcw4q_51PCHKTJ9gHcTzjHqojlD-OuU1E9GKiDXogk52pEz3H5qBGdNwsa3BNOce7scI8/s400/DSC_0841.jpg" style="WIDTH: 274px; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" /></a><br />I didn't mean for the portrait to look like Cameron Diaz but she sure does.<br /><br /></div><p align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgP50UvaRuwvJlddYmVipF8sku9IyOLUgZDq3F52BmQGB0pgk5svGWGIRZXjIplzC4x5F-SvGnuYoIrcOplLpcC5NqfypYg9vpxjjeCT3d6GlKq-bFoW8WxFVaE6_gw4NcGmqqHKzIMwHo/s1600-h/DSC_0844.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5431043078667892002" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgP50UvaRuwvJlddYmVipF8sku9IyOLUgZDq3F52BmQGB0pgk5svGWGIRZXjIplzC4x5F-SvGnuYoIrcOplLpcC5NqfypYg9vpxjjeCT3d6GlKq-bFoW8WxFVaE6_gw4NcGmqqHKzIMwHo/s400/DSC_0844.jpg" style="WIDTH: 294px; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" /></a></p><div align="center">This one I was basically just warming up and drew right from a book I have so it is not original.<br /><br /><br /><br /></div><p align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgD2Op6DGkBWCns-hD4JEeSBkKkUDRlV6X-SP6Aro9h40BNRsJiSUzvAw7HdFzKBxIDfOWNOh216m6DzCcVb8TgaRZkhjgZS-xRQs03-ttfIL0ZTotjwTB6CcZXHNf2y2Z05FCrVtcka5c/s1600-h/DSC_0846.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5431043070601901026" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgD2Op6DGkBWCns-hD4JEeSBkKkUDRlV6X-SP6Aro9h40BNRsJiSUzvAw7HdFzKBxIDfOWNOh216m6DzCcVb8TgaRZkhjgZS-xRQs03-ttfIL0ZTotjwTB6CcZXHNf2y2Z05FCrVtcka5c/s400/DSC_0846.jpg" style="WIDTH: 400px; HEIGHT: 272px; CURSOR: hand" /></a></p><div align="center">Practicing feet and hands...<br /><br /></div><p align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtQjrS8brhxj3SWOg3ixrwxxERbTlV8mwjBmhPgATBAsDnFMZzcnALvE5ps8BVZRCHi_PTfuZgn0gQgnoJUzcOQB0sUxdm9gMq_946zlsUWZI_nX61SHUD86vUEyDbjs3g_Ell-0kyu08/s1600-h/DSC_0847.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5431043064461080322" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtQjrS8brhxj3SWOg3ixrwxxERbTlV8mwjBmhPgATBAsDnFMZzcnALvE5ps8BVZRCHi_PTfuZgn0gQgnoJUzcOQB0sUxdm9gMq_946zlsUWZI_nX61SHUD86vUEyDbjs3g_Ell-0kyu08/s400/DSC_0847.jpg" style="WIDTH: 400px; HEIGHT: 234px; CURSOR: hand" /></a></p>
