#261

Finaly finished this drawing. Head proportions could be better (too late :)). I also don´t want to tweak this piece forever, so here it is:

raptor|3D,

Great to see you post this piece! :slight_smile: I agree that there are proportional problems, but, as I mentioned in your Anatomy Thread, I think it’s fine to move on. :wink: You have some nice work with the shading here, although I’ve also seen you do even better shading in other pieces. I think given the short amount of time, you have done a really nice job with this piece. :slight_smile:

Cheers,

~Rebeccak

Fairly new to the forum, I´m not quite sure if it´s OK to post WIP´s here, but I take my chances :slight_smile:
Painter IX, Oils. 30 mins so far. Started with the detailing of the right arm so far. The rest is just blocked in.

SaraD,

Yep, WIP is our thing here, :slight_smile: so it’s absolutely ok to post WIP. Nice to see your post! Just so you know, we are on the last week of OFDW 006 ~ this is OFDW 004. You are more than welcome to post here (all OFDWs remain open indefinitely) but most folks post to the most current OFDW.

Here is the most current one:

NOW OPEN!!! OPEN FIGURE DRAWING WORKSHOP 006 with Ron Eyre and Rebecca Kimmel!!

Hi Rebeccak,
I know this is an “oldie”, but I liked the definitions of themuscles on this one, so I started with it:)
I´ll hopefully have time for the following ones as well…

SaraD,

Cheers, :slight_smile:

SaraD,

That right arm is coming along beautifully! :applause: I would recommend blocking in the rest of the figure ~ but everyone works differently. Looking forward to seeing your next update! :slight_smile:

Cheers,

~Rebeccak

My next update:)

SaraD,

Wow, some fanatastic work and progress!!! :thumbsup: Ok, so now you have to tell us something about your background and training! :slight_smile:

Cheers, :slight_smile:

Here´s the finished piece.

Rebeccak, I work as a graphic designer, mainly books and covers. The painting is only for fun:) I have absolutely no education in painting, and have trouble drawing a straight line with a pencil. Why I can paint and draw on the computer I have no idea:) I haven´t done it for long, my first piece (the babyface shown in another thread here on the forum), is from last year.
I have some trouble getting away from the realistic part, and that is my next challenge - to try to paint looser.

Thanks for your interest and for the comments on the painting.

SaraD,

Wow, this is a beautiful piece! You’re amazingly fast. :thumbsup: The only thing that stands out to me as being off is the nose / lips size and shape relationship. Other than that, this is really fantastic!

It’s amazing that you don’t have drawing/painting training. Really? Never even one drawing class? :eek: That’s slightly depressing! :scream: :cry: :wink:

Thanks for posting a bit about yourself. Just saw your post for OFDW 006…trundles over… :slight_smile:

Cheers,

~Rebeccak
