Re: Still Drawing Breath in London
The way you portray the light falling on the figure has me studying these closely, Rob. You had some tricky poses, but your proportions are spot-on as usual- envious I am!

Re: Still Drawing Breath in London
Aah the power of foreshortening - ok I'm not 100% sure what I mean by that but these are quite nice ! Hopefully you were not at risk of not drawing breath recently sir!

Where's the rust then, Rob? As I scrolled down, they just kept getting better and better!

Re: Still Drawing Breath in London
Thank you! I did actually drop back into drawing more easily tha after previous breaks. The sessions are held in a domestic living room with very restrained lighting which has good and bad points. I do sometimes yearn for 3 point light which gives those gorgeous descriptive terminators between light and dark. I occasionally try to fake the effect with mixed results, but best to just stick to what your eyes tell you I think.

Re: Still Drawing Breath in London
Ah Rob it looks like London is breathing well, and that a Living Room is a great natural location for Life Drawing... decisive drawing, good choices and a very rewarding outcome

Re: Still Drawing Breath in London
Good stuff, Rob! Surely not rusty. #5,#6 and #7 really show how quickly you got back in the groove. I think in the first one, the highlights in the background overshadow the model's presence some, otherwise, they are all fantastic studies.
