Drawing from yearbooks

Drawing like it's 1999!

If you approach this session like

and I did, you’ll finish the hour with 60 faces!

Taconi Elementary 1989 - 90

You can add color, pattern, texture and all sorts of fun stuff later, like I plan to do. Maybe after a nap!

It was so much fun drawing with you! I’ll start a chat for sharing and feel free to tag me on IG (@bethspencerart) and I’ll share!

If you’re drawing along to the replay, here’s a little demo I did using just gouache and pencil.

And here are some fun ways to approach it:

  • Block in negative space with paint, then draw details

  • Markers and one pencil only

  • Just draw with a pencil like I did!

I prepped these grids before the session. I made the pink one in case I wanted to draw more slowly, which I didn't!
