Welcome to my online gallery!

This blog will house current projects, competed works, and an archive of past works by me, David M. Vaughn of Cheney, Washington! I prefer charcoal, pencil, ink, and oil pastels. In the future I intend to incorporate sculpture and acrylic painting into my practice - much to learn! I also hope to start incorporating more projects I've got rummaging around in my head and a few of my favorite landscapes in the greater Spokane area. Once I get a start on anything, I'll post on the Work-in-Progress page.

For the time being the body of my work is focused on figure drawing, a discipline I greatly enjoy and can't learn enough from. I will be incorporating more projects I am working on as time progresses.

Figure Study added to gallery, NOV11-01

I was able to complete this tonight, for the most part. I am going to aim to complete one piece of art every Thursday or Sunday...we'll see if I can keep up! This was from a Figure Drawing class at Spokane Art Supply. Here is the original 30 minute pose rendering:

    It's easy to sound crass when writing this, but I think the use of darkness, especially around the breasts, thighs and belly, really makes them pop out. Even her exposed toenail has a nice texture with your use of shading.

    Not at all crass - thank you for the feedback! Getting presence and dimension into the figure is what I was aiming for, so if I can get it to pop, schweet!
