I just started a class called Advanced Life Drawing and would like you all to critique my drawing. This was from the first day of class.

If anyone is interested in life drawing, I can scan the syllabus, which has a whole bunch of photocopies we are assigned to draw throughout the quarter.

I have problems drawing facial features, as well as keeping things in proportion, but I'm working on it. If you have any suggestions on how to improve on those things, please let me know!

Thanks,

Your suppose to copy photocopies? wasn't it a life drawing class? Maybe you could explain.

Are u drawing w/ pencils? I'd recommend some charcoal so you can get more of a variation in tone. I use Ritmo charcoal pencils. There a little tough to find, in my area that is( only found one store that carried them). And drawing on a large pad of newsprint 18x24 inches.


Dealing w/ proportion, it seems fine in this picture. It's very hard though to tell the volume of the legs because they look flat. You should check out this website one of our generous members who scanned Andrew Loomis's book www.antsin3d.com/loomis Very helpful and inspirational.

I just came back from my life drawing class. Left early because no model showed up.
