Finally past midterms

I can say that I am learning a lot. Slowly but surely, I will continue to learn.

Unfortunately I am a little behind because of this season's nasty sicknesses that seem to repeat. But, moving forward is where I am trying to focus right now. I really didn't like this most recent week of studies (arms and legs muscles,etc.), but I am really enjoying this new week.
We are studying the face in detail. Very exciting!!! :)

Anyways, for those of you looking for my most recent homework...

Study of the Torso Muscles

Mine (above) Michaelangelo's (below)... as if you couldn't tell...

Not the best work I've done and definitely not the easiest either! It is really difficult copying someone that you admire and who had really gone somewhere in their artistic career. Kind of puts the pressure on, especially when it is one of the greats! The line work was really difficult and I ridiculously underestimated the complexity of this piece. Good lesson for me though.

Michaelangelo's Libyan Sibil

Michaelangelo's Statue of David at Bernini

I did not have enough time in my week to finish this project. This 1/3 I got done took me 12 hours to do. (I know, I know, I am such a perfectionist!) I would love to finish it sometime. But that probably won't happen until at least my break between semesters, if not longer. Only time will tell. Wish I had more to share, but that's it for now.

Next I want to share some pics of the kiddos this fall. Super adorable. Well, until next time...
