Thanks for the observation and suggestion, Erik — I’ll take a look.

Hello Jillian,

I’ve been doing hundreds of 1, 2 and 5 minute drawings for the last 3 months, and only recently I started doing 20 minutes figure drawings. Maybe I’m not sure on what to do with so much time! 🙂 Maybe your tip on squinting is really what I need — I’ve been having a hard time finding form shadows, specially on images with low contrast.

Thank you very much.

Hello Annie,

I’m a self-taught artist and joined NMA just a few days ago exactly to try to find some advice on how to improve my figure drawing skills. I’ll take a look at your suggestions — thank  you very much!

BTW, I loved the portrait drawing you did for the Russian Academic Drawing course, specially the model’s facial expression — congrats!
