      Continuing life drawing classes but have so many questions and not really getting answers. Like is there a difference between line of action and gesture? If so what is it? Also is loa/gesture meant to be seen as the inner bone structure of the figure like the curve of the spine or ?? And how do you stop things from getting stiff once you start measuring proportions etc? so much to learn but I am enjoying the challenge. 1_1539628885770_BEFFFBBB-13D6-47C2-A4A9-774EF82460F3.jpeg 0_1539628885770_83E0F8A2-23FA-4EF7-B2DE-86303F2DDCD4.jpeg

              Still life homework for 2nd beginners’ drawing class. Really should not have chosen a glass object. Oh well- live and learn 0_1539972100511_9A83A184-CBBC-48E6-A17A-D853D95B9F49.jpeg

                  I started working on the second colored page for my book dummy yesterday. It took me a while to get going on the color, my insecurities were keeping me from it. I had to tell myself to just freaking do it! If I screw it up I’ll do it again. Then as soon as I’m into it the insecurities go away. Weird. Does anyone else have this problem?
                  Here are some progress pics.

                    These were done month back or so but it’s an update none the less. These are large files so I will have to separate them in posts.

                          Just completed 5 week life drawing class. Still a lot to learn but felt good to get something looking almost human on the paper! But more practice needed so will be going to some drop in sessions in future. 0_1541422008685_DFA0195A-092F-446A-9C92-2869B5E5BC75.jpeg

                            I picked up this bad boy for $5 this weekend at the thrift store. Woot! No more standing at the window to trace my art. 😃😃

                                @eli I know! I’ve been trying for years to get an old one from a buddy who works at a school. It was a total lucky fluke. 👍😃

                                  I'm starting a little late on this. This is going to be a two birds with one stone piece. The SVS Learn November contest, "Slow", and the SCBWI November contest, "Ritual". I'm at the value stage...obviously. 😂
                                  Since my art table is being monopolized by my book dummy project, I'm going to try and do this whole thing in Procreate 😳.

                                      Sometimes it’s good to let a picture breath a bit, then come to it with fresh eyes. Sometimes what is needed is quite obvious, other times not. Anyway, revisited Samwise and Shelob.

                                          @kaitlinmakes it’s actually very hot. 🤣🤣🤣. After a couple of minutes I have to back up and cool off 😂🤪
                                          This can’t be a permanent solution but it’s okay for now. 😬
