Description

Decided to take a head and figure drawing class from Bryan Lee. I find that I take forever and a day completing my portrait drawings because I get fixated trying to get the exact resemblance of the reference and I don't loosen up. I personally don't like where I'm at with my drawing progress this way. I feel that I'll only be relying on copying rather than working from imagination using the ref as a guide 😞. So I decided to get more practice in to increase my speed.

Imma also be honest. I lack self discipline with it comes to balancing my 'day job' with my art. so I look forward to 'forced' practice time 😅.

This drawing set is homework 1. TOTALLLY INCOMPLETE. I don’t know why but I felt embarrassed sending in incomplete work, especially since this is my “passion”. AND especially since everybody else completed. Sighhhh😔Anyways, the goal is to practice general proportions and apply it to refs.

I spent waaay too long trying to perfect the drawings and as accurately as possible. I still miss the mark with some and my lines became stiff. And then when it came to applying the proportion to actual ref, I struggled. I realised I spent too much time copying rather than learning how to apply. I guess this is what is meant by ‘meaningful practice’.

I'll try to loosen up the next time. 😤
