Portrait Study aka Ryan's face (Patreon)

Wednesday night we couldn't nail down a model, so we asked my housemate Ryan to just lend us his face. He probably knew I'd be drawing more than just his face. It became a good wrinkle practice - I'm still a little fuzzy on how clothing wrinkles work.

Since we had a clothed model for the night, I figured (HA!) I'd share this post with all patrons. Usually I add a bunch of little notes to these image posts! But I'm up in Maine at a cabin with no wifi (BLESS), and moving files around (I hand-write those notes on my iPad) is pretty slow-going. So all you get this week is Ryan's mug. 

I didn't have a whole lot to add anyway, except that HOO BOY that first warmup sketch of him was a great example of "drawing out the garbage!" Warmup drawings, man, they WORK. THEY WARM YOU UP.
