I decided to work on improving my use of color, so I've started bringing my laptop to the live drawing session on Fridays. Doing a caricature from life is, in some ways, easier than doing it from a photo. However, translating the colors and lighting from what I saw to the computer was more difficult. I'm happy with what came out, though.

Hey Sam, this came out really nice. Great drawing and vcolor choices. I'd love to see more of these if you do them.
Wonderful job! I'm curious, how did you choose your colors? Did you make up a little palette to work off of, or just paint on the fly?
Looks great - that's a nice idea, too :)
Very nice flesh tones Sam. Excellent exaggerations.
Fabulous work Sam - I like how you're always stretching yourself and trying new things. Look forward to more. Great work
Looks great! How long was this one?
Fantastic!
It really shows that you were there!
That light, softbathing all over the model is s really natural...
as always great work!
Thanks for the comments!
Jason: Most of the colors are just picked out of the color wheel, but I occasionally did color mixing on the canvas and then picked the mixed color with the eyedropper.
Andrew: I think this was about 90 minutes, from initial drawing to what you see.
Wow Sam this is impeccable! I am really sad I wasn't there. This really turned out great and he looks like he was a fun model.

this turned out excellent. Nice little shifts in colour happening, and I really like the edges on it too.

Sam, he looks like he's in a bubble-bath. You need to draw some bubbles around him.
