The purpose of the exercise is to make sure I draw SOMETHING, every day, in whatever medium comes to hand. This centaur in a spacesuit (well, you can&#8217;t see the legs, but they&#8217;re there) was sketched on a Strathmore 9&#215;12 sketchpad with a Winsor-Newton 2B pencil, then inked hot to broad outlines with a Faber-Castell &#8220;B&#8221; Pitt Artist Pen Brush, with details via Micron 03, 08, and 1 Pigma pens. Scanned on an Epson 7720, retouched in Photoshop to pull up the inks, and then separations, fills, filters and effects to create the starfield, kettledrum starship, Porsche&#8217;s uniform, transparent helmet section, main Porsche inks, and the glare off the reflection in the helmet. So while it&#8217;s a quick sketch, I exercised quite a few things trying to pull the whole composition together. Hopefully these exercises are helping.<\/p>\n<p>Drawing every day.<\/p>\n<p>-the Centaur<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As it says on the tin: I has the ZZZ&#8217;s, so you gets a real drawin&#8217; tomorrow, as Cinnamon would say.
