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.
