Jeso, I am glad to have joined this group, I found it by your posting in the welcome thread. Will look forward to whenever you have a moment to drop in.
Bookend, thank for the encouragement. The last few days have been a bit nuts.
Your Asaro Head study looks great, my favorite is the woman with the hat as your brush strokes seem more relaxed. Gotta get into a Few Sargent or Zorn Master copies, nice to see that study. I might do that after my 100 cinema study set.
Drawing from memory can be hard, most painters and illustrators usually have some sort of reference. Where I work, the concept artists always have lots of photo ref, but they do start with gesture and roughs. When making figures with arms and or legs , always include hands and or feet, they will have more expression and weight. Remember the faces and hands are usually the most expressive parts of the body and usually the most important parts in an image.
My study from Friday (Clip Paint Studio on a Surface Pro 2) hard to get into this one, again so much going on. I finally got to borrow a iPad Pro and Apple Pencil from work, so this weekends studies will likely be using it, whoo hoo!
