Hello!
I took the expressive drawing class before this one and enjoyed it, so I continued on with this. It was very good at detailing how to approach the larger shapes of the body as familiar orbs and cylinders, then filling in the details from there.

Here are my drawings throughout my progression of the course.

Trying to nail down the torso:

and the hips (which I struggled with a lot):

how the hips and the torso fit together:

They’re starting to look human!

Totally enjoying these series (though I prefer the timed model videos as opposed to the PDF of images) and the teacher is impeccable. Would recommend!

If you want to see more from this series as well as my daily art, please come visit me on my Instagram @thethumbprint.

Have a good time drawing, everyone! ‘Cheers!
