Rognoll's Sketchbook

[smrr]

Totally. I love that style way more, but it's inside my comfort zone and you don't learn much by sticking to what you know. I want to learn how to paint realistically too.

That's completely understandable and I feel the same way. Gotta understand the universal style that is realism before we can push and squeeze into our own unique style.

And yeah, I suck so badly at observing and still life! god!

No need to worry! If you keep pumping out more and more, in time, you'll become unstoppable!
But remember the most important thing with still-life studies is to apply what you learned from the objects straight away :D (though, that's with everything I guess :s)

Anyway, thanks for the advice! I tried to give more contrast to this last one, what do you think?

It's looking good, I can see you added contrast to her neck and arm?
Keep it up! You're a natural at painting! ^^

Crap. Forearm is extremely long

wahaha I got dat same problem. Dat anatomy studyin'
It's all good, the point is you saw that it was and therefore, you win! :D

Really, keep it up Rognoll
Your improvement is crrraaaazyy @_@
