@Trigger; I have seen the video of Sycra as well, I think the idea makes sense. Training observation and memory as well. And learning to analyze your own drawings is a useful skill in general, all though difficult.
Nice hand studies, I sometimes have the feeling that the fingers are a bit short, but not sure.
****************************
I haven't been drawing much. The internship is taking a lot of my time and energy which leaves barely anytime to draw. And at the same time I keep discovering new topics that I have to practice on.. frustrating business!
On the other side, I have been combining Loomis and Reilly and the portraits I draw from imagination look kind of oke with that approach. Portraits from reference, well those are another story :p.
And I'm still stuck at the second class of 'In Yo Face'. I have to copy the skull onto a portrait, but doing that digitally is just a pain. So I think I'll just print them and use tracing paper instead.
Study of the Reilly abstraction.

Application of the Reilly abstraction and some squared heads

And finally I finished a water colour painting again! Colours are a bit a mess because scanner and difficult to get right in photoshop :/
