Drew this today while I was at my parents' place. I left it there so here's a rather noisy photo.
Graphite pencils on A4 paper.
My parents loved it. They love when I'm drawing something dull and uncreative, as opposed to bloody and gory things I'm usually drawing.
On a side note, my CAPTCHA wasn't working so if you tried to leave a comment, I'm sorry about the inconvenience. Thanks to Slaven who let me know about this issue! :)

Oil pastel on black paper.
I doubt I'll work in oil pastel ever again. I gave it a few tries and even though this result is acceptable, I don't like working in this media at all - it doesn't blend easily, and it's hard to create any kind of texture that is not.. pastel texture.

More charcoal drawings made in class. That's all* for now, I took a pause this month because of exams.
* well, not exactly, but I don't plan to publish the rest.

I mentioned I was attending drawing class for a few months. We leave all our stuff there but today I took photos of my drawings so here are some of them in their crappy quality.
The first two are graphite pencil, the last is ink.
(To be continued.)

I finally started driving school. I do pay attention to the class, but my hands have to be kept busy at all times. (yep, I'm a very mercurial type)
You can see some preliminary sketches for my last digital painting at the bottom.
This one was started at college (hand, eye), continued during the driving school lecture (glass, ear) and finished at home before bedtime yesterday (candlestick, shuriken).
As usual, black and red ballpoint pen.

I neglected real practice lately, I've been only sketching random junk from my head, so today I decided to draw something real.
I bought the heavy-textured yellow paper and a white pencil some time ago, now I finally put them to use. But the paper is not really suitable for detailed drawings.

I was on a 4-day trip (SF convention in Osijek, Croatia), and during our long train ride I played some boardgames and sketched some random stuff in my sketchbook. Here are two pages I like the most.
Black ballpoint pen.

I removed these images from my gallery, so I thought I'd post them here since I'm rather proud of them. Both are from nearly 2 years ago, January 2006.
Reference
I started drawing in summer 2005, and I had no previous drawing experience. I drew Kidush out of boredom, and next thing I knew people were praising my pencil work. That made me all enthusiastic about drawing so I did some photo-referenced portraits, but then a wise man said that drawing from photo reference is not so good, and that I should draw from life. And that's what I did.
Then I started drawing people, and they pointed out how my anatomy is all messed up. That's when I left still life and started sketching people, faces, skulls and bones, muscles and body parts... And while I think I made progress, I'm sad to see how I've become so impatient, I never thought about sitting in front of a inanimate object and draw it for hours again. It seemed so much easier before.

I wasn't home yesterday (reason: the fabulous Tori Amos concert in Ljubljana), that ruins my "at-least-one-drawing-a-day" plan, but let's continue like nothing happened.
Another try at self-portrait, it didn't go so well, but at least I know what I'll look like if I put more weight on.
A simple composition of brushes.
