@ Adam: Yes!!! I hope it will be. This year's been so chaotic, and I'm so tired of it by now. I hope that I can finally find a good rhythm again (:

So why is it that always, when I work out a plan and a schedule, something happens that totally destroys it...it's like murphy's law, probably. Also, it's been so unusual hot here and it really affects my productivity. Hm.
A lot of boring stuff this week....figures and figuring out perspective. I feel really bad that I'm so behind on a fundamental topic like perspective. It's really embarassing, and sometimes I feel pretty hopeless, because it seems like my brain can't process this information. I'm being very frustrated with me and my results, but I guess I somehow need to power trough it. Being frustrated also means that I'm out of my comfort zone which is a good thing, because
I'm learning something/ challenging myself (HOPEFULLY).

left from imagination, right from life. The thing at the bottom is my I Pod stand and it's been a struggle. I'm not going to leave this thing alone though because it feels like a good study subject to me. Definitely will be going back to it.

More of the stand and figures. The construction stuff concerning the figures is copied from Krenz, from his study material that he posted on deviantArt back then.

Bridgman/Hampton. Don't know why I didn't continue here, either I ran out of time or it was too hot. I really want to deepen my anatomical knowledge, hm.
I want to add some colour to this post so I'm posting some stuff that is a bit older. My friend gave me his gouache paints a while ago because he won't use them anymore, so here's some stuff I did, ACEO-size

First try, in combination with watercolours because I was too afraid to use the gouache paint for skin.

Second try. I noticed that I don't know anything about facial anatomy and so I can't paint it. Back to studies, it is.

Posting this because I kind of like how it came out, I thought I could maybe add something I'm not as frustrated with for a change as well! XD
Planing to continue studies on backgrounds and perspective this weekend. Let's see how this goes.
