Copying from masters





















So here are a few master copies I've worked on during spare time the past two days. Finding time to draw seems harder everyday. The only thing harder to find time to draw is getting myself to draw during down time, since working full time.

So I managed to find a decent copy of "Drawing the Head and Hands" by Andrew Loomis. It was a pretty penny but I don't regret it at all. Loomis is one of the rare masters that can actually explain his process is a clear way. I love this book, you can find digital copies of most of his books online. I'm just one of those people that likes having a full book case.

I didn't do any warm up drawings before hitting this book. I've purposely left the bad drawings in there along with notes to myself on where to improve, what's not working, what is working. This system is great now that I don't have a teacher. Anyway, this is going to be a short post being that my girlfriend's on the phone in the background. Till next time folks.
