Hello again C.D, long time no see. I've been away for far too long, and hopefully I'll stick to it this time. I've set myself a timeframe to improve, and I intend to give it a real attempt this time.
I have made some progress with my time, however. In October I did Tough Mudder, for those of you that don't know what that is, it's a long 18 km obstacle course. It was fun :D
And over the last few months I've managed to lose nearly 20kg (hooray for me) and put on some muscle. I still have like 15 or more to lose, but I'm sitting with a much higher self esteem than I had.
In terms of drawing, it probably looks like I've gotten worse with these drawings, but I find I need time to get back into it. And exploring things I'm not used to will be difficult, but I need to expand. I'm going to try 3 activities to improve;
-Draw poses on a pose viewer (like pixelovely =])
-Sketch artworks/photos that interest me (to understand the perspective they use and the placement of things in the frame, that always gets me) then re-do it from memory
-Do studies of specifics, then re-do them from memory
I want to get better at drawing things from my mind, without having to lean so much on reference material.
I'll try and keep posted every day! Peace!
