    Here a plaster done in art school (6 hours) and photoshop speeds. I just finished a first year in art school and I never really draw before that, so at the beginning it was really really hard for me, but now I've got somes of the basics I think...

    Wow.. I love the texture of those rocks in that last painting you did. As for the first sitting figure, try to draw the feet and if theyre too hard to draw, then draw some wedges as a basic shape. It's important for showing perspective in your figures.

    Hope this helps! Good luck!

    FredAs : Thanks for reply ! I'm trying to follow you advice : I've making sketchs for simplifying feets first and I'll continue until I feel comfortable enough with to draw the shapes without thinking too much about it, after maybe i'll get more into details. Feets hands and the neck are my principals difficulties ><


    Velocity Kendall : Thanks ! I hope you will be right ^^

    Somes of today's works : a quick study on photoshop from observation, somes fast gestures based on photos, and feets sketches from imagination (and the help of Burne Hogarth's dynamic anatomy book) ^^

    hey mec, la forme ? a faire ce que tu fais ! beaucoup de dessin au trait, et quelques études de valeurs/couleurs par ci par la, mais toujours priorité au dessin au trait ^^, je pense que tu devrais passer plus de temps sur tes études de gesture ! la qualité est meilleure que la quantité ! la rapidité viendra avec l'experience, mais aussi avec la compréhension de ce que tu dessines ! prends ton temps pour tout ce que tu fais,, c'est important ! surtout qu'a cohl, 8 heures pour un dessin d'objet ca passera vite, en fin d'année, avec les pastel, tu verra pas le temps passer, donc profites des vacances pour prendre ton temps !! Continu a taffer l'anatomie, mais bon, plus important que les pieds, c'est le torse et le bassin, c'est le plus gros volume du corps ! si la perspectiv et les volumes du tronc sont bons, alors il sera beaucoup plus facile d'y accrocher les jambes, bras et tete ( d'après hogarth, pour la construction du corps, c'est l'ordre de priorité : tronc, jambes, bras, puis tete ) ! je vais te laisser continuer a étudier, prends bien du level pour septembre !

    Your sketches do a good job of capturing the subject's movement. I would have to say that is thing I am most enjoying about your sketches.

    Today I start an other self portrait, I just blocked in the mass and started to construct, it's on grey paper with just a hb pencil but when i scan we can't see clearly, tomorrow i'll add some values with conté pencil and post the result

    Here a little sketch, if you have coments you're welcome ^^
