Hands!

I'm struggling a bit at the moment.
Not sure where I'm going. Feel a bit flat. So I've decided to not think too much and just get into the habit of practice. "Practice makes perfect" Right?


Since I like doing figure work, getting all those arms and legs looking like arms and legs regardless of position is a challenge. Foreshortening (the technical term) I actually like! It really is what makes or breaks a picture or image. My mentor has given me some websites to check out. www.princetonol.com
www.posemaniacs.com    www.istockphoto.com
Interesting sites. I wish some of them had some real people though, old, fat, ugly!
I will definitely use posemaniacs, which I have shown my son, who is into manga drawings big time!


I have resorted to what feels comfortable and has that emotional link, which seems to be so important to motivate me. Sorry guys, its my family again!
