Here are the results of my forth week of figure drawing practice. When I started my lunch sketching project its purpose was to help accomplish one of my goals for this year; focus on Figure drawing proportion.
The problem is that when I set that particular artistic goal I didn’t think too long upon it. It’s a crappy goal. Conventional Internet Wisdom (TM) and an authority no less than Wikipedia tells me so.
I’m told that goals should be SMART:
- S = Specific
- M = Measurable
- A = Attainable
- R = Realistic
- T = Timely
I’m pretty sure my vaguely worded goal only satisfies Timely, as I had given myself a one year time period. More thought required.
Here then are the meager results of this week’s lunchtime sketch. It was a bad week and the drawings reflect that.

I had to cut this one short – probably about a 2 or 3 minute sketch.

Oh… did you stop doing your daily scribbles? I can so much relate to your problems. So much, that I almost… well actually I had the same idea with my blog (see ‘about’). Anyway, I have been looking for some kind of daily task someone or something gives me to do daily scribbles. My head is just so full of other stuff that sometimes I just need an outside source to motivate me.
Stop? Well not really. Just not as consistent as “daily” would imply.
