Today is Norway's Constitution Day. I'm celebrating by donating to a Finish campaign supporting the fight for freedom in Ukraine.

If you enjoy democracy and the rule of law, please consider donating to this or other campaigns.

Color Brush Pen Croquis
2 minutes, 7 colors
Color Brush Pen Croquis by Dag Arild Dramstad 2 minutes, 7 colors Beige Red Apricot Green Gold Indian Red Pink Madder Lake Sanguine Coral (Faber Castell) Female sitting on the floor, turned away, crouching. Her feet and toes are pointing towards the bottom right corner. This might be my record number of different colors used in a 2 minutes pose. It's not a goal in itself to use as many colors as possible, but it is an exercise in quick, instinctive drawing. #art #croquis #drawing #figurativeart #lifedrawing #nudedrawing #figuredrawing #colorbrushpen #sketch #sketchfromlife

A drawing from the 2 minutes session last night.
Managed to use 5 colors, but didn't have time to draw the head. Which is fine, as individual anatomical features are of no to me, while abstraction of form and volume are.

Color brush pen croquis, 2 minutes, 6 colors.
I remember this whole session as a joyride, where I managed to use multiple colors in each drawing. I'm very happy with the distribution of the colors and the rugged character of the lines.
Color brush pen croquis by Dag Arild Dramstad 2 minutes, 6 colors(!) Female laying on the floor, chest up and feet towards the spectator. Her arms are stretched out in each direction, her head is turned as she is facing right. Her knees are slightly bent and pointing towards the bottom right, tilting her hips. Her feet and toes are positioned on the vertical axis containing her head, chest and hips, but pointing towards the bottom left. #art #croquis #drawing #figurativeart #lifedrawing #nudedrawing #figuredrawing #colorbrushpen #sketch #sketchfromlife

Croquis, one minute sessions.
The model is using a couple of seconds between each pose, and I have to change paper, leaving about 55 seconds to draw the figure.

I was able to use two colors for this one, Beige Red and Apricot.

I love these paintings. Great compositions and beautiful integration of the human body into a close to abstract surface.

Color brush pen croquis of a nude female sitting on her knees, leaning her upper body on a chair (or something similar - we don't see it ). Dividing the paper in a bottom-left to top-right diagonal positions the body inside the bottom-right triangle. Her right lower leg from the knee to the toes occupies the top-left triangle. #art #croquis #drawing #figurativeart #lifedrawing #nudedrawing #figuredrawing #colorbrushpen #sketch #sketchfromlife

Note to self:
Try to limit the overall range within both saturation and brightness. A tiny area of a value outside the main range can heighten the dynamics. Note the yellow dot in the top branch of the central tree, and the warm field behind the trunk on the right.

Working on limiting my palette so do this little treescape in cooler colors.
