240413. A few more studies after gesture lessons with refs. found on Proko. WHS sketchbook (plain paper size A4: 210x297mm). Mechanical pencil HB.. I have attached also ref. model photograps. My sketches are not limited to just a few lines as when trying to find a "right" line i was just "ghosting" it and did usually a few repetitions or corrections which you can see on the paper/picture.. Also I was not trying to perfectly sketch proportions and gestures and lines do not have a quality of sketching in computer. Cannot say it better than Lin. Thank you ver much Michael for sharing what you know.

Michael, I've only been drawing for 7 months now but it hasn't been easy. Very little remains from each practice session even after 6-8 hrs of daily practice through these months (it's the way of art, isn't it, with it being a marathon not a sprint). However, what I've learned from you has instantly stuck to me and I am just so grateful. You explain things succinctly and well, and it just resonates with me - so I wanted to say thank you so much. :D

They say it’s not good to draw for to long every day after 2 or more hours your brain won’t process the information well and u will forget most of what you learned. It like craming for a test you will forget the next day. I think the sweet spot is an hour of delibrate pratice a day
