(repost) Union Centre


Quite a few times I ended up redrafting some of the figures that did not move. Other times I just took glances and drew what I could remember. I'm trying to use looser movements then darkening up lines later, however I suppose simply getting the gesture would be far more appropriate.

Relating to posts: I seem to be having some amount of problems posting.. I leave the computer to allow it time to post and I end up coming back to it having an odd message about "Edits" even when i use the "new post" tab.  Trying to figure out why posts are working sometimes and why they're failing at other times.

  1. Bert,
    I can't really address the issue with posting. Try it from another computer. make sure the images you're scanning aren't too large. They shouldn't be any larger than a couple Megabytes.
    Realistically, they should be jpegs under 1 MByte.

    As for your drawings, the top figure is your strongest but it is floating. Furniture ?

    Avoid drawing straight overhead poses (seated figure w/chair)- they are difficult to distinguish and not very dynamic.

    Yes - the line is loose - this is good. Start here,then once you establish a pose AND a composition, make confident, committed decisions to define your subject.

  2. Some of these are a bit hard to read just because the tables are simple circles, so they're harder to distinguish. Drawing overhead is complicated! :)
