nice, now this is how Degas would sketch. Good Work.
going to limit myself and see this as an exercise drawing rather than a finished detail work. share this for now.
Working on proportions without tracing. Feeling better about this one. Enjoying the challenge!
Amazing!!!
Wonderful! I love the delicacy of these marks
Very nice!
That’s great to hear. This is a wonderful drawing!
Great! I love the expressive quality in the marks!
Very nice work!
Challenging and rewarding – gain a lot just from the process.
I thought I’d keep it a little looser and a bit exaggerated! This was fun, thanks again, Scott! Graphite and white pastel pencil on toned paper.
Absolutely loved drawing the dancer! Thank you, Scott!
What a challenge this week! This time I gave up on details and only tried to catch the proportions. I share the work anyway. I had a lot of fun but also suffered a little bit ?
A challenging subject but tackled it anyway. I used white Strathmore paper that I greyed so I could erase for the highlights. Used a 2B and a 4B pencil. Thanks for another great lesson Scott.
Challenging and rewarding.
