Deadline - submit by Feb 16, 2025 for a chance to be in the critique video!
I did the first drawing while watching the video.
The second I did an hour later. I referred back to my notes a lot.
The first picture was my study along with the video. The other three were my attempts to do it without looking at my study. The last two I was able to do it without looking so I felt I was okay to submit and progress further. Thanks!
Assignment by hand. I love the explanation of the back and forth movement of the spine and body parts. Very much action and reaction, or push and pull. I took anatomy classes years ago and had to memorize muscles, bones, landmarks and that took so much enjoyment out of drawing the figure, so I knd of moved away.
Great lesson! I’ll have these proportions memorized into my fingertips with practice
Here’s my attempt. Next time I need the width between what I drew for the front and back views.
hello this is my first attempt, so a lot of critical mistakes. But I'm happy to improve and not get caught up with perfectionism.
