Figure Drawing Progress(?)
I'm struggling a little in the figure drawing class. The figures seem a little lifeless. In this sketch I totally missed the subtle backward lean of the pose.
That being said, I'm still having a great time renewing my skills. It is remarkable how much I had forgotten about basic sighting.I'm thinking about buying one of the virtual pose reference series books, the kind with the DVD. I don't know how useful it would really be.

You may have missed an angle (I don't know but I'll believe you), but you did a wonderful job on the legs! It's hard to capture so much with simpe line. I often realize just how far off I am with a line when I go back to work over it, which is why I prefer charcoal to pen in life drawing class.
ReplyDeleteThis is lovely, truly. I've been curious about those DVDs too.
ReplyDeleteThank you!
