I havent been to impressed with how i draw faces, for some reason they seem lifeless. If I want to be someone successful, knowing and studying anatomy is something I must always do. I remember having a drawing book as a kid, it was the kind that starts off with circles/cylinders and eventually you have a complete character. As a kid I thought it was ridiculous to start off with a circle, knowing that the shape consists of so many other curves. I never wanted any other book like that, I thought it was a waste of my time. Then I went to college, and I learned in my anatomy/life drawing class how to go about drawing the figure. And on that first day we were given a demonstration on how to go about setting up the over all form. He drew a circle, then a cylinder and so on, and I instantly felt like a dumbass after the demonstration was done. Sometimes you have to see something done physically in front of your eyes to truely understand the process. After years of denying the circle/cylinder process I had to start learning how to see objects as basic shapes. Its not always easy but its definitely the best lesson that got handed to me. I know my drawings are still very weak, and im just trying to develop my skills as much as I can, and I know with more and more practice there will be no disappointment.
