Here are some recent sketches.
I'm working on giving weight to the figure, balance, proportion, and movement.
Last figure drawing class, I had a really good night and there wasn't any good reason for that because I hadn't drawn in over a week. I was just on. I truly think I was given a bit of grace and favor to encourage me a bit...I wasn't expecting to do any good at all.

Hi Patti, good to see you back... and... ...doig your best ones yet,yes! Bravo. Jon
Thanks Jon,
I'm surprised I can concentrate on any drawing right now but for some reason last figure drawing session I was "on" and drawing much better than usual. Hoping for continued growth. Thanks for commenting. -- Patti
I really like that crouching nude with the rod - was that in class, or reference? Jon
Jon, That was from a photo reference and practice. I purchased several books entitled Live Model Books - Art Model 5 for the Visual Arts ... for reference and practice. My goal is to draw the figure for at least an hour every day if I can. I will post some of of classwork ... just haven't gotten around to it yet.
A model taking that crouching pose could not hold that pose for more than a few minutes and that is one reason I want to be able to draw the figure within one minute in a gesture. That is what I am working for in class. -- Patti
