Rendering the nude and family sketches.

Whew! This summer's been passing by. Now I'm starting to wish summer was longer. There's so much information on the figure and 2 months is not nearly enough time to learn it all. So my summer's been alright. I've been working, running, studying anatomy/figure/,drawing, and getting ready for college. I feel a lot more comfortable drawing from life and hope to accelerate at a good pace.

Some Stuff from figure drawing class...

The better gestures I've done this past week. I've been trying to be looser and more accurate with my gestures.

Studies. I've also started doing some Bridgman and Hogarth studies these past 2 weeks. Very nice nuggets of information in there.

Still Life/ Light Study

My free trial of PS is almost over so I had to get the most out of it. (reworked with tighter edges)

It was not the easiest thing to do I admit but by doing it I gained a better understanding of Photoshop and color theory. Also I learned the importance of building a solid base sketch.
