Here are the my latest life drawings.

I feel like I am getting better at economy of strokes, especially in the shorter poses.

It comes from getting quicker at identifying shapes more accurately.

It's fun when your strokes do what you want them to do.

You can do more with one stroke than you were able to before.

It translates from painting to drawing and vice versa.

I've been going out to paint a lot lately, and it feels like each one sharpens the other.

I am simplifying things better in all aspects of my art.

Your figure work is nice. I like the gesture in the poses you draw. Especially the one that is bending over backwards.

I can see what you mean about the strokes. I don't really have a crit for you because it seems like your doing the right things. You aren't over concerning yourself with rendering and these seem to be 5-15 minute poses.

Keep it up
