Peter's Sketchbook

How married are you to the specific techniques used at watts?
Your figurative work seem to have some consistent issues that I think are a byproduct of the kind of vague and modern approach Watts pushes on their students. I think with a more traditional and analytical approach to drawing, these issues would quickly melt away and you'd easily be able to self correct your own work. I don't mean to convert you to a ultra traditional way of drawing or anything, just that maybe some experience in a stricter manner of drawing could help give you greater control when you're using more experimental techniques.

I'm open to other approaches of working, mainly stuck with Watts as their way of working lends itself to ilustration and imaginative work which is what I wnat to do ultimately.

What kind of training would you suggest? Are you talking following an Atelier approach of cast drawing and spending alot of hours on a single piece or something like sight sized?
