As I was saying, the portrait is simple and as such, and personally, out of reach because I am a person with complicated thoughts (I don't even understand myself) In this same train of thought, it occurred to me to give firmness to the support of the head, which is the figure, and I took some rigid cardboard, plasticine, and delved a little into anatomy with the idea of ​​immersing myself in this vast terrain. Well, it's just that! A couple of books, anatomy and the desire to think a little before striking... thanks for the way, master! I am moving further and further away from my original problem (portrait and drawing) finding a happy solution to everything. At the same time, fascinated by the solutions I give and I owe that to you.

Well, I'm excited about the possibilities of clay. When I started the portrait course I saw it as an additional resource, or some way to look at the problem from a different angle, after a long period of meditation I started to take the books and... ok, I got too excited about cleaning my mini sculpture, especially because it was the piece and the head. I'll give myself some time to solve and push and I think I have an idea

Hello, for now I only intend to document my process. The simplified form of skelly, armor also from Loomis in his book "the figure in all its value" of the skeleton serves me very well as a block. I also added Loomis' head, pelvis and a mini portrait of Apollo. Only the vertebral column and the head are made of aluminum frame hanging from another. The extremities are not subject to anything, I simply wanted to give expression to the masses

This is a sketch of model Codi Bryant It is in terms of refining the features through the Court Jones design which I learned from his caricature course. According to my idea and what I have learned from Burne Hogart's books to date, it is to simplify the 4 muscle masses: orbicularis, buccal, frontal and mandibular. I also attached a pen sketch to the side to confirm the solidity and I am happy with the last year's work. Greetings and blessings, teacher, I hope that in the future I can follow the step that for the moment I am going to dedicate this year to studying the design, and the plans of Mr. J. Azaro. thank you!
