''Are you asking how much time i spend on a preparatory drawing before I move into the painting part? Many thanks for the words, I really appreciate it! ''

No i am asking what proportion of your work you spend purely sketching vs purely painting.

That mean in a way do you consider yourself a painter or someone who do alot of work they don't necessary think as finish and we never see them post the content in there sketchbookl..as far as it shown so far i would say you are a painter more than a sketcher.

So the idea of the question is to see where you have to balance your craft.Sketching and painting both have there own strenght.

In people sketchbook we generally see study so far i wouldn't consider what presented as study but rather observation study the difference is that observation study are about reproducing something will study are about understanding art principle and apply them.What i am saying in a sense is that i have no metric to understand what are the intent.The progress is slower once you start to paint because you spend more time rendering and less time will seem to be spent trying to study about the principle of design it the trap of painting it make the viewer  thinking more about the rendering that let say a bunch of sketch where you can clear see a principle being apply.

But the problem is not necessary that you are not thinking about those principle but that the viewer as no information that you know those thing it for use to assume.

In my sketchbook for example i have a serie of environnement that showcase i been applying a principle over multiple thumbnail.(http://crimsondaggers.com/forum/thread-3...ge-11.html) From page 11 to 16 if you need to better understnad what i mean.

All i am trying to say is a description of the goal of each piece and a bit of what you were thinking along with it goes a long way to get feed back that are going to help you push to the next level.But also that sometime it easier to understand what you are trying to do with quantity over quality.

My Sketchbook

Perfection is unmeasurable therefor it impossible to reach it.
