I didn't notice any links to your radio but I do the same with YouTube and find relaxing music for when I am working on my art. It's also a great idea to take time to do something different - sketching in this case - to keep your other artistic skills sharp!
I've been doing the same since becoming a full-time artist because I don't want to burn out and I do want to elevate my skills. People have never been a strong suit of mine so I am been trying to work on getting a little better with that.
Looks great, keep it up!
Oh I’m sorry I meant to and forgot at the bottom will link when I get home but it was the classic fm channel. I don’t normally listen to classical but for painting I am coming round to the idea it is good.
Same same for me, I paint spiritual abstract work but I do also want to get a lot better with form and proportions and am going right back to basics and teaching myself. I’ll go to a life drawing class I think. I realised these quick sketches are all about gesture and not trying to get detailed forms right so time pressures sketches are great for me as I am not interested in doing realistic art.
I also just had an idea now of how to make these into paintings or the dancers
I bet the sketches would be pretty cool as something small like an ornament or coaster. A black coaster with these in acrylic and coated in epoxy resin perhaps.
Also, I bet you could find someone here on steemit with a post about "life drawing" and I guarantee you can find a plethora of YouTube videos on the matter. If you wanted to save the time/money opposed to a class that it. Sometimes being around others in that context could be more fun and motivating.
For music, I often go with "low fi" ambient stuff. They have channels on YouTube that will give you a couple hours worth. Relaxing and doesn't distract me.
Yeah agreed it’s just nice in person sometimes I think. We used to have one rly local I went to a couple of times before covid
And I think it’s easy to just paint paint paint rather than do the sketching homework and keep improving ones drawing
