I am just starting to learn the basics of anatomy. The more I learn, the more defined the sketches are able to be. One never stops being a student.
30 min. drawing of a bust in the Metropolitan Museum of Art
Out of many sketches in my sketchbook from advanced drawing, I decided to pick my favorite one.
"Raising of the Cross". Charcoal sketch.
This B&W painting means something to me because it is one of the first times I'd used oil paint. This one took about 4 hours.

Sketches

Sketch: a rough drawing representing the chief features of an object or scene and often made as a preliminary study.

I have a habit of carrying my sketches past the point of preliminary studies, but not quite to the point of being finished drawings. Enjoy!
