So this last week I've been flailing about a bit.
I finally did my last study from "Human Anatomy for Artists" (yay--it took so long, it required begging the local library to let me keep it beyond all my renewals). I then started trying to draw figures from imagination. The ones shown here are the best, it kinda went downhill from there.
And so it was back to pixelovely for references like so (I'll spare you most of them)...
But that still wasn't working, and so it was back to where I left off in Loomis's Figure Drawing book, with his blocky shapes...
And then back to pixelovely with a marker, wondering how many times I've drawn those same ballerinas over the last year, or that guy with two swords...
It still just feels like something is missing.
