The face on this figure was stretched in a weird way. I am happy to say that the whole pose fit onto the page - I think I just need to add a little more clarity to my lines to describe the scene. Maybe it's as simple as darkening the contour lines or using a light pencil for gesture lines. Somewhere between slow, methodical measurement and quick gesturing is the perfect pace for these drawings. If I keep trying, I will eventually figure it out.
Trying out a challenge to myself - to create "finished" pieces with a limited color palette on a consistent schedule. I am still working out the final guidelines. I think I would like to challenge myself to use a new texture in each piece as well. I've had this unfinished sketch in my sketchbook forever. Even though I'm not entirely happy with it - it feels great to finally have it done!
