My life drawing course with the excellent Jim Morphesis (link to his work: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/john-seed/jim-morphesis-the-wounds_b_7014096.html )
sadly ended Tuesday. I will miss the experience of having an actual body, in the flesh, in front of me. I benefit keenly, even if the results aren’t immediately apparent, from a live model and consistent and structured practice.
That said, in the stacks of drawings made in this class , very few were worth much more than parakeet liner. And from the rest, only bits and pieces satisfy me.
But one of the issues I am working on is abandoning this mad quest for perfection, I fail miserably each and every time. So relinquishing the claims of my ego, I post some of the drawings from Art 12A ; some from extended poses, some gesture drawings (gestural drawings drive me bonkers).
So now with class ended I will join other forums and study groups…plus I always have myself!
Gosh, you’ve been working really hard Leonard, and enjoying it by the sounds of it. But your hard work is paying dividends, I’d be very proud of the drawings you’ve been posting recently!
Phil my brother , I cannot adequately express my sustained gratitude for our friendship .
Leonard my dear friend, and the same goes for me 😊
