Sketching the Sketcher (26 self portraits on the move)

I have decided to post these sketches all self potraits that I have done on the move, from the archives. Some have been sketched on the train, looking into the windows when it is dark for my reflection and others have been done in toilets, looking at mirrors and some at public laundry, looking into the window for reflections. The ever changing face!

You have loads of talent. Just browsed your blog...great portraits. Not many female models though
ReplyDeleteThanks yerox!
ReplyDeleteI don't know...you must be very talented to have done SELF-portraits. Great job!
ReplyDeleteI've enjoyed seeing these, Adebanji. I particularly like the one of you in the Laundrette with the washers, nice composition - would look great worked up as a 'finished' piece, methinks :)
ReplyDeleteThis is really impressive. Some of the finished/almost finished ones are really very good.
ReplyDeleteVery impressive, Adebanji!
ReplyDeleteWow, this is extremely cool! And what a wonderful way to redeem all that "down time!"
ReplyDeleteThanks Janet, I think so too!
ReplyDeleteThanks Myne-yes there is something about the unfinished pieces that the finished ones lack-Spontainety!
Thanks Edward!
Thanks Ksl, those journeys are too boring without sketching fun, especially when there's no one else to sketch or all the models are wide awake and ready to "attack" if one picks up the pen!
Absolutely adore this series. Would make a great show.
ReplyDeleteThanks Liz
ReplyDeleteAdebanji, Simply Amazing! I know you must be super busy with all of the projects your doing but I've started a new Art challenge Blog for all fine artists. I'm not sure how you'd like it, because all submissions must be done in paint. If you have some spare time in the future I invite you to give it a try. You'll find the link in the upper right hand corner of my blog.
ReplyDeletePaint on my friend- Alice
Alice, Thanks so much for the invite, I'll try maybe one these days. Because I'm really busy and have committed to others.
