Every now and then, it's good to experiment with drawing in a different style.  In this case, what started as a warm-up sketch turned into an exercise in drawing a pinup girl in shapes, with little to no outlines.

Happy St. Patrick's Day.  Everyone's Irish today!  And remember, friends don't let friends drink green beer.

Burlesque Belle

By now, it's kind of obvious that I'm a fan of the old-time burlesque of the 40's and 50's, as well as the Neo Burlesque movement of today.  Part of my research is going through pictures on the internet, as well as reading books such as "The Velvet Hammer Burlesque: Glorifying the American Gal Since 1995" by Michelle Carr.  If you haven't read this coffee-table edition of history and photography, I highly recommend it.  More

Drawing the Pinup Face – Avoiding the Same Six Faces

blaklable Tips

One of the pitfalls that can happen to pinup artists is falling into the habit of drawing the same face all the  time.  The site  TVTropes.org calls this Only Six Faces, and points out that this can happen very easily in the realms of comic book art and animation.

Product Review; Wacom Bamboo Connect tablet

blaklable Tips

When I draw pinup art, I tend to use a mix of traditional media and electronic tools.  Up until this point, if I wanted to use portable tools, I was stuck using pencil and paper or pens.  Of course, if I was taking a life drawing class or sitting in a cafe, my first choice would be my trusty sketchbook.  But lately, I've begun to see the importance of being able to take my digital tools around and be able to work just about anywhere.

So after doing the research, reading the reviews, and comparing specs and prices, I went and got Wacom's "entry" level tablet, the Bamboo Connect.  More

This girl is a slight departure from my usual drawing style.  It's slightly more realistic in rendering the face, for example.  And I'm cheating ever so slightly in that I'm not drawing the complete figure.   More

Click to enlarge; can you spot the mistakes?

While I was happily creating this image, I was too caught up in the flow of the creative process to notice something.  It happens to every artist at some point.  It wasn't until I stepped back, after showing it to a colleague, that I saw three colossal mistakes that could have been fixed very, very early in the working stages of drawing.  And they all could've been seen with one easy technique.  More
