I shaded in a little bit more. Then went back to the mime-folds. I took this picture outdoors since I prefer natural light when I can get it.
I’m learning to see the “backlight” on objects. Where the light has reflected back on a fold for instance and amongst the shadows you can see just a wee bit of light along a line. Nothing's better than the gummy eraser for taking away a very narrow stripe of graphite.
The flaws are getting more obvious as I progress. The contour drawing (outline) was a bit off in the arm. I’ve made it too short. May use my creative license and ignore it.
you always do such gorgeous work, eden! and i'm definitely all about using creative license for short arms!! xox
