Born in Ireland, but live and work in Birmingham, UK. The big challenge for me is drawing the human figure with greater accuracy and realism.

Sketchy ginger dudes! This was a fun little puzzle, I kept my starting gestures/blobs pretty close to some poses I was familiar with but I played with the proportions more in the blob phase, and started to explore different ways to exaggerate the shapes and contrast character types. I think I could have kept them a little more abstract, and root-based, but I found this exercise very freeing!

Ha! Great shape and design.

Here's my latest installment on hand studies. These are all based on my own hands holding things. They are all charcoal on newsprint, with some process pics as well. Really enjoying these, albeit tough to get right.

Here are my fist studies, which are charcoal on newsprint. I'm really loving these hand exercises, they're a lot of fun. The references are based on my own hand (one from a photo, and one from real life).

I try and do gesture studies as often as I can, as I'm still working my way through the Anatomy course, and don't want to stiffen up. These are mostly gesture, with a sprinkling of some structure. I didn't time these officially, but I'd be surprised if any of them were more than 5 minutes.

I really enjoyed having a play with these. They are in charcoal, pen & ink, graphite, and Conte, respectively. It makes it so much easier when you have boxes, triangles and cylinders to use as your foundation layer.

I found this one the trickiest so far, especially the thumb.

Hand study part 2. I think I found this one a little easier than the first, for some reason. Probably because of the position of the thumb.

The first study of this particular hand exercise. Tricky, but fun to try and make it up. I used my own hand as a guide as best I could for this, and then enjoyed Stan's take on it.

And the last of these hand studies, including a page of the last three. All Conte on newsprint.

Arguably the trickiest one so far. For me anyway. Conte on newsprint.

This is my second hand study, which is Conte on newsprint. Another tricky, but enjoyable drawing.

The first of my hand studies. I think I like drawing hands, despite how difficult they are.

I did another forearm study, but this time from one of my own references. I thiiiinnnk I've put the muscles in the right place (reference included), but if anyone spots any mistakes, please do let me know. Thanks guys.

This was tricky (which is an understatement). I had to refer back to the notes a few times, but that's all part of the process. I definitely want/need to do a couple more forearm studies...

And finally my ridge muscle studies, which seem very straight forward after coming from all the complexity of the flexors and extensors.

And this is my flexor muscle version of this exercise. Really recommend this approach, it has helped to lock it in better...still not 100% locked-in, but closer.
