Portaits - trying out different styles

  1. Wow Shirl, I am amazed at your output. Okay, I really like the third one down from the top, I think it is the way the figure slumps, as though exhausted with life, that I like about it. Number 7, though I am not sure why I like it. It is striking somehow. Maybe the eyes? I love the face of number 8 but I find her left hand a bit creepy. Is it true that hands are the hardest things to draw? Finally number 10 - the eyes again. They are just so sad looking.

  2. 3rd down - a fantastic 80yr old model, no upper teeth so that his large nose almost touched his lower crooked lip which kept sucking thruout. fantastic to draw.
    no 7 did in last class and it looks very much like the style of my teacher now that i look at it.
    8 is a man in a caftan and the creepy hand is just badly drawn, both are actually.
    10 we've had him a lot. is good to draw. has great feet, really lovely high curvy arches.
