You are absolutely right Michelle! I tried to remember everything I learned in his workshop and I had his book out, as I had just finished rereading it. So I tried to think about creating the skin and thinking about how nothing is straight or flat, everything on the body is round. It really made me get back into that zone, that had eluded me since before my surgery two months ago.

I did not work on it yesterday. Maybe you, or someone else could shed some light. For some reason my drawing looks like her head is tilting more than the reference. I don't think I mind it, but I can't figure out what is creating the look. Could it just be that I have not "put in" the hair. The lines I have for the back of her head/hair are fuller than the reference, I will make that adjustment.

Thank you for the compliment, Michelle! Wish me luck on the rest of the piece. . .
