Description
"Woah. People! You never draw this kind of stuff, Mitch!" you say?Yes, well, it's high time that I got back into the art of life drawing. Since the 2008 Olympic Games are well underway, it was only fitting that I should sketch out a few poses. I went to the official U.S.A. Gymnastics website, located the "Photos" section, and proceeded to do some practice sketches.
As you can see, the drawing on the right is unfinished... and will probably remain so. I'm fairly pleased with these, which is a miracle. I really need to practice drawing people more often.... (snigger)

one little critique: you did the guy on the left's leg a bit odd...it almost looks as if he has two knees........but other than that the antomy is very good!

Gymnastics is my favorite part of the olympics!

That goes for me, as well! Quite typically, however, the station that I watch it on (channel 4) doesn't show that section of the Olympics until 10:00 PM or so. 
Thank you very much, dude!
