Rusty. Trying to get back to drawing. Will do some more focused anatomy drawings next round. I could certainly push the pose a bit more and work on my torso anatomy.

New stuffs Focused on shape and volume with the under drawing removed Also tried to go beyond my usual lazy-rendering and incorporate more texture & definition Quite pleased with how this one came out

Hello. This is a bird post Squaaak Also a rhino That is all.

Japanese rock garden from ref & environment based on a place I drove by the other day

Line → Basic Value Structure → Rendering Tried out a new workflow. I can certainly refine the process and be more cleanly with my brushstrokes. Overall I'm satisfied with it. Things to work on next time: - Brushstroke Efficiency - Textures - Edges

Worked through some CtrlPaint exercises to try different sketching techniques w/ some basic objects.

Big fan of Steve Huston's work, his figures have so much energy and rhythm. I was ecstatic to find out he has an awesome Figure Drawing For Artists book. It's much different from the traditional Loomis & Bridgeman books I had used prior to finding it. Definitely enjoying it so far. Here be some head sketches -

In an effort to feed my creative soul I'm starting this thing up to keep track of my progress. Mostly an accountability blog/journal for myself but maybe it will be of some help to somebody else in the future.  Gotta start somewhere, even if you're the only one watching.  Time is always slipping away from your life, whether you realize it or not. Best make every day count towards a goal in some way or another, even if it's just a lunch break.  A fitting meme for my first post. Time to finish something.
