This is an amazing thread with tons of interessting information. I just started going through the first few posts. Thank you for sharing you knowledge. Just one downside but maybe its just me but sometimes I have difficulty to read the text on your studys wich is a pitty because the stuff I can read is very interessting. Don’t get me wrong the writings are looking beautifull I just have difficulty to read some parts of it.

[i]Here is
the latest
little head
demo from
SoFA’s Tuesday
afternoon group

It terms of color
I use a variety of
materials and
try not to get
into to much
of a procedure mode

This last one was
done primarily with
a Payne’s Gray nu-pastel

I try to have a variety
of material available
and often mix dry
and wet media

I just try to
get into the
drawing and
not over think it

I aim more for
attitude and
expression than I do
accuracy or realism

A Couple of Pages
From the Weekend

Single pears;
some from ref.,
some from life
and a couple from
imagination

This is a homework
assignment I give my
students from time to time.

Thought is was time for me
to revisit it myself.

Will finish the
second page
and do a few with
multiple pears

This one of the exercises from
[i]my online figure structure workshop

L’Exerciizio ::: 42[/i]

Torso (Rhomboids and Serratus Anterior)

Rhomboids:

There are two muscles in the Rhomboid group,
the Rhomboid Minor which originates at the Seventh
Cervical Vertebra and inserts at the spine of
the Scapula and the Rhomboid Major which originates
at the Dorsals down to the fifth vertebra and
inserts at the outer edge of the Scapula

Serratus Anterior:

The Serratus Anterior muscles originate at far
underside edge of the Scapula almost connecting
with the Rhomboid group and insert on each rib
down to the Eight Thoratic sometimes even the
ninth.

Since both of these muscle group attach to the
Scapula it is obvious that they work together
to pull the Scapula; backward, forward, up and
down. The Scapula is not attached to other
bony structures and floats around the rib
cage with the assistance of these two
muscle groups.

There is a third muscle that gets involved
that we will deal with at some point called
the Levator Scapulae which originates just
behind the Sternal Mastoid and inserts
at the top of the blade of the Scapula.

Were get into the muscles of the Shoudler
next and work are way down the arm.

Hiya,

I relaly love your style. It is reminiscent of sketches of antiquity. The movement of your gestures are really nice. I like how you keep the form and weight with your gestures. You work always makes me want to sketch. Keep them coming :slight_smile:

As always take care, be safe, and farewell

Dottore!

I find it quite fascinating how you have hit on a never-ending topic with your three ladies. I never tire of seeing a new take on the same theme by you.

I love the tension in the female head study, starting from the collar bone reaching up to the forehead. It’s really amazing.

What do you use for highlighting on your studies? White ink pens?

Have a wonderful new year, Doc!
