100 Heads: Head #8


I am now attempting 3/4 views. Using anatomical knowledge to construct a head is much easier and faster than uninformed observation (although in theory, careful observation with no anatomical knowledge should get the same results). 5B pencil in my Strathmore 400 Series Sketchbook.

This is a very ambitious project! Especially love Sargent's Madame X--excellent! Have you looked into Charles Bargue's Drawing Course--you can view a little of it here http://www.learning-to-see.co.uk/bargue-drawing-course
I'm tyring it in hopes it will help me with my iconography. Great work--looking forward to seeing all 100 heads.

No, I haven't seen Charles Bargue's Drawing Course. I checked out the web site; it looks excellent.
