Figure Studio Long-Termer

The first long-term assignment in Figure Studio was a value study of a photograph. I had to chose a good quality portrait photo that had a wide range of values, in order to be reproduced in charcoal. Gridding is totally not ok in this program, we learned amazing measuring techniques by using our pencils and plumb line to find center points, and compare angles, heights, and widths, etc.
