Session #028, Work #023

Thanks to Anthony Ryder and his book “The artist’s complete guide to figure drawing” I had a great time drawing today and I was happy with the end result.

Overview

After reading some of my Anthony Ryder book today, something just clicked about the envelope. And this painting went super well. If I had spent as much time as it needed the drawing would have been perfect.

Can’t wait to do it again tomorrow.

Keepsake, Oil, Still Life

Chris Beaven

I'm an artist on a mission to do at least 30 minutes of art every single day for the rest of my life and track that progress on my website for all to see. I'm past the 10 year mark and I'm still going strong. Now it's time to give back and help other artists create a life long habit of creating.
