Sometimes it's because, technically it's different from what you saw, but since the rest of the world didn't see it, it's always about what works and what doesn't. That's why I always assess my life drawings a few days after the fact.<br />I love the watersolubles for life drawing. You can draw from life and then wash in the colours later.kaslkaoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04041865957191874234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30774035.post-49264622366315442282011-11-27T11:27:32.918+00:002011-11-27T11:27:32.918+00:00I have no drawing tips, my drawings all look nothi...I have no drawing tips, my drawings all look nothing whatsoever like the thing I am drawing!! I do like watercolour pencils though.

You have captured the proportions very well also. That shoulder angle does look tricky, especially from the view you had. I would blame it on where I was sitting if I were you!

I like your sketches. Just a thought:...Hi Jennifer. I like your sketches. Just a thought: On rare occasions, I like to draw with conte crayon sticks. If you break them into smaller lengths and use the sides of the stick you can get lovely flowing negative spaces and lines. Especially nice for life drawings on large sheets of newsprint which keeps one loose and free because they can be easily tossed if they don't turn out. Great for repeated fast sketches. Nice in brown or rust shades or black. I have not done this for a long time but you made me remember today.<br />Have you tried conte ?M J Muirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17583326191693218992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30774035.post-6160593742646115642011-11-26T00:10:46.743+00:002011-11-26T00:10:46.743+00:00Lovely work, Jennifer!

The shoulder may be just a wee tad to high and angular BUT I am definitely no expert on drawing the human body. It's probably best to go with your own instincts.<br /><br />Have a lovely weekend ~ :)Serena Lewishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17789734075055678964noreply@blogger.com
