Welcome

This is about improving our drawing experiences, and hopefully have something to build on and expand our critiques. If you have a drawing you want to talk about, you should be able to post pictures and comments. If you have difficulty, just email me! Should be fun! Thanks!

10-25-2011 Warts & Beauty Marks

 I consider this one a wart mostly because I did not complete this drawing in the way I wanted to. I just ran out of time - which is rather different for me and I'm not sure why. It was the first drawing of the night, and I wasn't quite in the groove yet - but I love this pose! She has such an angular body and sometimes creates such interesting spaces in her poses. This one has that repeating negative space shape that is so interesting. And her shoulders were pronounced in the v-shape which I didn't fully attain - but this one I may work on to see if I can finish it without the model - I like the pose so much. That usually doesn't work for me, but the focus will be good IF I can do it.
This is not fully a beauty mark either, I did not scale the figure well enough on the page to be able to include that extended right foot - it would balance the design, and complete the drawing, and contain the viewer's interest more. Oh well - some days it just doesn't flow - that's okay - it's part of the process.
