Fingers and Toes

in #art7 years ago (edited)


Today is a bit of a drive-by posting. I haven't done any drawings for a while, so found the required materials and sat down. It was a bit of a challenge because my mind kept wandering to painting. However, I used some discipline. I'll use a bit more in the coming weeks and put some more marks to paper. Putting the time and effort in on the drawings has done my art overall immense good. It is the foundation of good painting because it forces you to concentrate on the shapes and values.

But... today, I go back to the paint. I have a new idea I am itching  to execute. I have to finish preparing the latest batch of 10 canvases I recently purchased. Then, its all systems GO!

A very unusual look, it reminded me of how I, as a child, painted a wolf running along the path, while the view was from behind the wolf, unfortunately the teacher could not see my talent ...

Some people lack creative vision, often teachers and just don't see things from other perspectives. You were just too challenging. =)

Thank you, feedback from the master is very valuable!

Very nice drawing. People don't realize that a portrait of someone's feet can be just as expressive as a face.

The feet don't get much attention or love, yet they support us every day. If given a chance, yes they can be quite expressive.

Well, when a person has an idea and inspiration, as a rule, all his actions are obtained at 100%. We wait from you for a magnificent picture.

Starting today. =)

This is so wonderful <3

Hi Shlomit! Thank you! =)

"It is the foundation of good painting because it forces you to concentrate on the shapes and values." - absolutely true!!

Just came back to say I have to follow you now to see more ;)

Thank you, more coming along soon. =)

Can not wait:)

Oh my word this is simply stunning. Wow!!!

Thank you @debart!

Always a pleasure

Great drawing and details!

WOW @leoplaw, this drawing is wonderful, upvoted and I follow you!

I call it talent. it is very realistic and the details are very well reflected in your drawing. I follow your art with pleasure.

Thank you for your generous words @banum!

Great drawing of two hard subjects for drawing, it's good to come back to paper sometimes @leoplaw.

Thank you Dunja! I'll be doing some more paper this month. I need the exercise. ;-)

I think it necessary to do drawing from time to time, like going to school again, like training sport.

Da Vinci and Dürer kept up with their drawing exercises their whole lives long.

I like this one very much! I like feet and hands! :-)

Thank you Romanie! Hands + feet = foot massage. =)

People's feet say a lot about them. I love this drawing!

Thank you @jaclavet!
They do indeed! However, we usually cover them up. Perhaps that's the reason why, they tell too much about ourselves.

Yes I like this - keep going

Interesting plot

Very nice work! Followed you, btw. I hope you'd follow me back so you could see my future works. And see how bad I am at drawing. Haha. Keep it up!
