    Hola Ram, good stuff. I sense some mood/action in a lot of these. Liking your mark making, definitely changing. Work on being clear in your form/volume construction.

    Hi Jaylene

    Some good looking hands: gesture, emotion. Congrats on finishing your 100 Day Challenge for gestures. Keep it up!

    These breakdowns are from Guido Reni. Also, here’s a Halloween portrait.

    @Susan Izzard Hi Susan! Thanks! I’m glad you’re finding these inspirational. Hope you’re picking up a few things here and there. Cheers!

    Long time no see! I just wrapped up a sketchbook last week. Due to personal matters, it took a bit longer. Continued on with my arm/hand studies. I’m currently studying Luca Giordano atm, once done with that I’ll be moving on to Steve Huston’s leg/foot chapter. Hands are hard! And a lot! This sketchbook is mainly that along with my daily self-portraits. Enjoy! Also, Happy New Year!

    Another figure drawing and a self-portrait from the days when my town was burning. Much props to Chris Legaspi’s short video on head drawing on Post-Its. He focused on the big outer shape and this particular sketch was done before he uploaded that video. He stresses it enough that I decided to try my hand at it. 😉

    This about does on my hand/arm studies for this sketchbook at least. These are from Hale’s ‘Drawing Lessons…’ book (Durer, Raphael). Below is some drawings from a live Summer figure session.

    Of course arm studies can’t be done without learning a thing or two from Michelangelo himself. Decided to change up materials and also work with the waterbrush and wash for my portraits. Pretty fun! I don’t paint often and I liked how Glenn taught with the waterbrush. Should be a nice transition into full painting.

    Hi Ram,

    Really learn to DRAW-THROUGH. Construct the forms as you feel them from all sides. Since you’re practicing the torso, don’t just focus on the ribcage itself, try to differentiate the waist and hips as well. Look to see how all three parts fit INTO each other. Drawing-through will allow you to see how things ‘connect’ to each other.

    Wow, so close! Awesome.

    For Day 82, right-most sketch, I like how you have the spine/centerline, but that wrinkle to the left cuts way too long. I know there’s compression, but a nice short indication could help. Also, see it as a gestural/action mark that flows over the mass of the ribcage/scapula.

    You’re definitely understanding those block forms that make up the hand. Good stuff.

    Some breakdown studies from the great Eugene Delacroix! An admirer of Rubens, lots of energy in his paintings. Figure below is from a live-session. A few places started opening and this particualr offered outdoor drawing. Small-ish drawing of about hour and a half. A favorite model of mine.
