I like the flow of this figure a lot, it turned out very fluid I think. Sometimes, I feel sad that I drew a drawing on cheap newsprint, but I keep reminding myself that practice makes it perfect! If I wanted to make a version of a particular drawing on good paper, I could with … Continue reading Leaning figure, charcoal drawing

I think I got shoulder girdle better in here, but there's still room to learn. This pose took 20 minutes, but I feel like this isn't the easiest pose to draw in general. There's a subtle lean on the stool, and it's hard to catch it for me.
The figure on the left took me 10 minutes, and the figure on the right -- only 5. That feeling when less effort produces better results... XD
This one is a 20-minute pose, and looks like she's walking some place important! 😀

These ones are also 7-minute poses, I really like the one on the left 😀 Wish I'd worked on the stool more, but I feel like it's a fair accomplishment in such short time ^^
These two were 7-minute poses. I'm really starting to concentrate on including the surrounding objects that support the figure.
Before I started studying figure drawing, I didn't realize how bendy and twisty the human body is. Now, I need to show this realization on paper! ^^;
