being conscious of my lines , I am certainly forgetting about my proportions now when drawing
17.2.25drawing tablet not working today. Just drew in sketch bookusing this approach to draw from imagination
18.2.25tablet still not working. I am gonna work on memorising some proportion and basic anatomy to see if that helps with myfigure drawing. I feel like part of the problem for my construction is simply forgetting where certain parts are placed, so having a better memory on those things would help,I think.
19.2.25@snakker I realise what you mean now about how my construction is wrong. In theory if my construction is right then everything should be in the right place regardless of the details.Which means the mistakes I am dealing with are simply because my construction is incorrect and I dont notice it, then I have to overcorrect during the line artIts more like knowing where things go rather than guessing.
still having tech issues
I am doing something like this very basic details to notice the construction mistakesreally trying to focus on thatDone with mouse cuz my tablet is problematicWhen I fix the issues with my drawing tablet I can check my mistakes easily by putting it on the reference, right now I am just trying to see my mistakes
20.2.25just working on the construction its clear how much my proportions are wrong.I just need to remember to fix my mistakes.
21.2.25I have been working on my construction and proportions so I have been doing this the past few daysOnce I get my drawing tablet working again I can check for my mistakes properly. For now I am just hoping I can actually spot my mistakes
24.2.25I am close to fixing my technical issues.
26.2.25Finally got my computer working againThis is more of how | intend to study nowReally trying to get my construction and proportion right.What I did what draw the subject. Put the drawing on the reference to see my mistakes, then use that as a reference for a second attempt.
Since I really wanna focus on conmstruction and proportion, I am unsureIf I should focus on mileage and just doing alot or Critiquing my work and correcting mistakes??

I started to do some silhouette drawing or negatives space drawings. They really show me how bad my proportions are. Which makes me think I need to work on the larger shapes and bigger picture. Beside just silhouette drawing is there anything else I can do to work on proportions Are still lifes a good idea. Any help would be really appreciated
A very quick still life just trying to focus on proportionsI think this will be a good exercise for my observation skills and to help with my bad proportions
3.3.252 minute poses gesture drawingA 5 minute portrait, I was seeing if its a good idea to set time limit on portraits
4.3.252 minutes gesture trying out different approachesAfter the first few I just drew the line of action and tried a gestural silhouetteSome portraits done on around 1 minute each, really just trying to get proportions not worried about any details
Trying to get a 2 value painterly look
5/3/25gesture 2 minutes drew line of action, circles for head pelvis ribcage, then focused on silhouettePortraits took a different approach I drew the silhouette then added guidelines on topI feel the silhouette helps me with proportions. So the construction was done after the silhouette. Very random and rushed perpsective practice, Trying to find the right reference.looking for that more 1st person look
6.3.252 minutes gesturesAbout 10 minutes per portrait Really cant get the features to look accurate
