    Work page from late 17th c. Italian artist Giovanni Maria Ciocchi. This was about halfway through my sketchbook. It was around this point that I started slowing down a bit. I was encountering more refined/larger drawings from the Old Masters so it allowed me to focus more on the construction/other elements.

    Some of the few feet studies I did. These are from a personal fave: Andrea Del Sarto. The other legs are from Signorelli, Michelangelo and Jacques Callot.

    A sheet of Guido Reni and Giulio Romano. I’m quite of the lower-left leg of Romano: gesture, balance, movement. A good drawing from him I want to further study. It was in Hale’s book.

    My last page to show of my recent leg/feet study after Huston’s book. TONS learned! These include studies off Prudhon, Rubens, Michelangelo, Raphael and Da Vinci. Lots of structure and gesture, some ‘eff ups too. Currently on the last chapter of the book!

    @Eve Gundry Gracias!

    Hello NMA! Feliz Ano Nuevo! Last month I completed my self-study of Steve Huston’s figure drawing book. Highly recommended! For the next few days I’ll be sharing my efforts of his last chapter on Light and Shadow. The exercises has you focusing on constructing simple forms, mapping a shadow edge, and giving it a value. Along with secondary forms and highlights. A challenging one since Rendering is a weak point for me. All are done in charcoal…a medium I DON’T like much. Nonetheless, I gotta explore. Enjoy my study of Old Masters!

    Good morning. Two pages for today: First are copies after Steve’s awesome and powerful figure drawings (used a Pentel marker for the right one which I’m not used to). Second is after an Italian artist for a battle scene.
