Continuing on with Life Class: Today’s Nude, I did this 5 minute pose but it was so difficult to pin down that it actually turned into 10 minutes. I kept getting the proportions wrong and found myself rubbing out a few times and starting over again.
This pose was of Maria Muñoz, who is a dancer, and she is quite slender and muscular, but the pose itself was very challenging. I am unhappy with several elements of the sketch, but since it was only supposed to be a quick pose I didn’t want to do any more than was really necessary, otherwise it would have turned into a long drawing, and that requires a different approach.
In saying that, the only way I can improve is by repetition, and by making mistakes and learning from them. I just have to keep drawing and drawing, and hopefully I will get better with each attempt.
thats how you progress for sure
yay this is fantastic! i managed to get all of the programs – so i’m going to try them again!
A month or two ago, I wouldn’t even have had the guts to try something like this, so it’s progress already
Thank you dearie.
Glad you got all the programmes. I’ve just been trying to get in one pose a day, so at least the vids will occupy me for a little while.
