Day 116 of sketching people. Experimenting with the Pilot V7 pen to create ink bleed for tonal shading on monochromatic people sketches. Exploring how to use the Envelope Method to map out simple shapes for a strong page composition and layout.

Took part in some of the Sketchbook Revival art challenges this year, and my favourite was the “sketch an object repeatedly” challenge, where I chose to sketch a page of portraits.

I did Koosje Koene’s “How to Draw Distorted Perspectives” Tutorial, and here’s the exercises we did using two different approach. Firstly contour ink lines, and then another sketch using watercolour shapes, and adding minimal ink lines afterward.
