Amanda twice

Haven't had much time to practice lately but was able to get to the Monday night group yesterday.
The drawing was about an hour's work. Had a difficult time with the legs - a weird angle for me. I think the head's a bit small (again!) but I think I can make it a little larger if I want.
The painting was quick. There are some things I'll change in that to see if I can get it looking better.
Any and all critiques, comments, commendations and condemnations appreicated as always. Now I have to go take a look at everyone's work - I've not visited in a long time.

The head seems ok to me. Nice job on tough angle.

A tricky pose for the first one. I think the head size is ok. Not sure about the length of the thighs- but you were there.
The painting looks good- nice colours.

Good stuff, Mike! A pleasure to see the watercolor again. I like the pencil drawing too, I think you captured her erect posture well.

Watercolor! Yea! Very nice, clear watercolor, Mike.

Some nice work here, Mike. I think that part of the problem in the first picture may be this: follow the centre line down between the breasts and down past the navel and the line comes down on top of the leg - so in fact the root of the thigh should be slightly further over giving more of an appearance of length. I may be right or wrong but it gives time to try to solve some problems. Ady
