Day 37.
A girl uploaded this reference picture to an anatomy and action group on facebook
and received a lot of comments with wrong (imo) advice from people who canĀ“t
draw the figure better than her.
She actually drew the right (imo) line of action and exactly like I would have drawn
it too, she just rushed the rest of the drawing and didnĀ“t have the skills yet to draw
the figure. I think it can be really harmful to artists to receive a lot of critique from
other beginners. IĀ“m also a learning artist and no expert so I only give very general
opinions or recommend good courses.
I tried to draw that pose today to check if the line of action works and to get
back into figure drawing. The legs are too long, I always drew the legs way
too short as a teenager and people started to make fun of that, I think thatĀ“s
why I always draw them too long now
