Watercolour Shadow and light speed challenges

Image
2 1/2 minutes 10 minutes 5 minutes  Speed Watercolour challenge- I wanted to try doing a quick speed challenge using watercolours to make me come out of my comfort zone and loosen up with my art. I found the 10 minute painting very relaxing and detailed even though I missed out an arm. As for the 5 minute painting half way down it turn into a blob of colour. without any detail or any definition. I'm not too fond of how it turn out due to not looking like the male model. The 2 and a half minute I knew wasn't going to be my best but I don't mind how much rough it is as it was done really quickly.

This has helped me focus more on proportioning and practising more speed challenges. On minute drawings 40 mins

Watercolour Home objects- After drawing the household objects I wanted to try and do them using watercolour my first drawing (Xbox controller) was drawn in pencil first to help loosen me up. I really like how this came out as the proportions are right and so are the colours.

Watercolour two colours

Image
I used yellow for highlights and blue for shadow. This format helped me view where light hits and where shadow lays. I enjoyed how freeing this was and even though it didn't involve a lot of detail it still adds to the realism.

Nude model proportion sketch

Image
Nude model- I found life drawing to be very different from my normal style. It helped me figure out proportions and directions. I wanted to start off doing a detailed sketch to get used to proportions. I didn't add much shading as i wanted to focus on my proportions. It was the first time i used the measuring method i think it has definitely helped me improve the realism of the models body.
