I remember drawing with Tommy as a freshman, possibly? Or maybe I was a sophomore. But anyways, the only thing I really remember from those lessons was feeling utterly frustrated. I just couldn't get it. I was too rigid and was drawing contour lines first, filling in second. I couldn't conceptually grasp the other way around, or maybe I was too stuck in my ways to truly try it Tommy's way.
This time was different. Although you can still see my previous problems of focusing too much on the contour, I think I'm getting the hang of figure drawing. I was courageous enough to try out different techniques. In the first pic, you can see how I tried extremely light guiding lines and then using defined contour, while in the second I tried using both defined guiding and contour lines. The third I tried filling in the mass with conte crayon on its side, and then going back with contour. I'm excited to work with Tommy again.
