DOOONNNEE. My goal for today was to do over 100 figure studies and I reached it. Just burned through an entirely new sketchbook (yay for dollar stores!) and 70% of a new China Marker (not so yay because those are more than a dollar!) but I'm feeling MUCH better about my figure studies now. This was just randomly generated figures on a website, but it was still great practice. I tried going to a drop in life drawing class last week, but I was sooo out of practice that I just wound up incredibly frustrated with my inability to draw. That was a real downer. But today I felt a lot of my confidence and old skill and speed come back. I just need to keep up the practice.
Not sure what's next....maybe I'll try 20 hand studies? or some portraiture tomorrow? My values (shading) needs a lot of work too. I need a directional light so I can set up some decent still lifes.
Oh yeah, I guess I should acknowledge that I haven't really posted here in a few months. Oh well. I've just been up to work lately. Work, comic books and playing DCUO (I'm officially acknowleding my addiction to an MMO...). Also I got sick of being forced to work on the busiest days of the week for the theater, so I booked those days off (thurs, fri and sat) so I can work on my art, build a portfolio and hopefully go back to school. That's the plan anyways.
Oh and I got a friend to order Phantasy Star Portable 2. So I'm making a new character in that to play with him. Trying out human mage so I can actually see the human styles this time. Also trying out mage. I love Phantasy Star. I really want to get a Playstation Vita and Phantasy Star Online 2 *___*
