More people… I guess I spend about 2-5 minutes per person.

OneWeek100People 2024 – Getting to 100
I totally forgot about One Week 100 People this year! I had so much fun doing this challenge last year and I actually was looking forward to it again but completely forgot to check the dates. So it apparently started Monday the 11th and runs until Friday. I started to play catch up last night and just went to my Pinterest board from the previous year as there are about 300 people pins that I never got to.
Drawing feels much easier than in the previous year, although I think I haven´t sketched any people since then. Anyhow, great practice and warm up for other drawings. I will try to make it to 100 until the end of the week. Currently I am at #37.
Are you taking part?
One Week 100 People
It took me much longer than a week, due to the flu, but I eventually finished them all. I also was colouring some of them in and still want to colour in the rest. I really struggled in the end to get to 100 but I can also see a definite improvement from the first page. I haven’t been drawing people for a while, so this was a great exercise.
Next I think I will do 100 animals 🙂
One Week 100 People VI
Another page coloured in….I spent maybe 3 min on each sketch and then another 5 min to colour it in.
One Week 100 People V
Still having fun with this challenge. Here some of the coloured in sketched. I realized that I am either drawing kids or old people, which are both more interesting to draw.
One Week 100 People IV
I got knocked out by the flu last week… fun times… But I managed to make it to 71 people so far. I will keep on going all the way to 100 until the end of this week. It also takes me longer as I want to colour them all in.
One Week 100 People III
Here come number 10 to 14. Combination of watercolour, coloured pencils and for number 12-14 I used olive green ink for the outline that I bought some time ago but never used.
One Week 100 People II
Love how these 4 turned out. I am using the opportunity to have fun with different styles and mediums. Used a mix of sienna ink, watercolour and coloured pencils for these.
One Week 100 People
It´s time again for this fun annual art challenge – One week 100 people. And it´s exactly that, you got one week to draw 100 people in any way you like.
I am using the opportunity to challenge myself to do some quick character sketches by using pinterest as inspiration. So far I´ve been having fun with it. Are you taking part in the challenge?
How flexible are you?
Another somewhat lazy quick sketch.
I think I am quite good with my flexibility but not anywhere near this lady with her monkey.
Don´t ask me what the monkey is doing there, he just happened to show up.
Daily Yoga
Still practicing and experimenting with the pose of the day. I am not able to get my leg that high up though.
Walking the Walk II
I do like to draw these different perspectives. Really helps me to study people in a fun way. Another Pinterest inspired “quick” sketch.
Dropping Ink All Over
When you try to do a quick sketch and the ink flies all over the desk…
I think it still took me about 30 min to do this one. So not that quick after all.
Looking Good in Pink
Ready for work.
Lately pink has become my favourite colour. What is yours? My favourite dress is bright pink.
Also still studying people´s poses from different perspectives. Pinterest has become my new best friend as source of inspiration.
Walking the Walk
Still trying to sketch a person at least every other day, just to keep practicing.
Ink All the Way
Still on the ink. Yep, loving it. But also missed some colour. So I ended up adding a bit of watercolour to this drawing. Below you can compare the before and after. Which one do you prefer?
This is also number 99 in the series of One Week 100 People I did at the beginning of April.
Another Perspective
Studying people and poses from different angles.
Changing Perspective
If your are stuck, sometimes it helps to change perspective.
Time to Chill
This is how the last days looked like for me. Hope you had a good weekend as well.
