TUTORIAL FOR THIS WEEK:  People Sketching - Street Musicians

This week we are sketching street musicians! I've found a variety of different poses but which one catches your eye the most?  And what name would you give him? (If you like someone else's name suggestion, let me know in the comments and I'll choose the most popular 😉)

I was inspired by a sketch from our community member Izitiz, of a musician posted in the group chat recently 🙌🏼. There was also another sketch someone did but I can't find it! 

Please let me know in the poll below and if there is anything you'd like me to particularly focus on in the tutorial. 

WHAT'S COMING UP:

Week Starting 19th February: Portrait Sketching

Week Starting 26th February: Urban Sketching

#2. What a character and interesting hands. Looks like a Bruno to me.

Bernie

Charles - like the King. I think he exudes a great sense of dignity.

Rick Morris

Scottie, I like 1 because of the position of his head. Will certainly be a challenge for me.

4 is awesome. 1 & 4 look most difficult. All are good.

Izitiz

Happy to have inspired this poll - can’t wait for the tutorial

Bernie

Great guess Scottie - yes!

Stevescogs7

I’m saying no 2 and naming him Bill Striker

Lorna Graham

2 for me, love the beard and hat. Looking forward to it 🤗

Marie Cornelis

bonjour à tous,les 4 photos sont TRES intéressantes!!! nous pourrions toutes les faire?merci Scottie!

Rob F

1 and 4. Like both compositions. 3 would be a fun caricature I feel

Lorna Graham

He looks Turkish to me Scottie so I name him YILMAZ 😁

Joni K

I waffled between 2 and 4. #2 has so much character… the beard, the hair, the hat, and he’s looking right at us. However, I pick #4. I like his pose, sitting on the ground. He has an interesting guitar. I could really get caught up in the details. I’d like to see how you’d simplify that. Oh, and the bare arms! When I draw bare arms they look like sausages, haha. I’d name #2, Tyler.

Karen King

I voted #4 (name Eli)....but will be happy with any. All look challenging.

Deb liekkio

Number 2. I think his name might be Slide Sherman.

Ashley McMahan

2 would be cool, I really like the cobbles for the foreground,.could give some lovely perspective and depth.
