Not too bad I guess.  It looks a little "pumkiny"  I think the back of the head should protrude even more now that I step back from it.  Lots of work to do yet, in fact I haven't even scratched the surface.  The only thing that I can really tell that has changed is that I'm feeling more confident to throw lines on a page, not so hesitant to draw a line then to erase it.  I think because it helps me visualize the drawing more and I can tell instantly if doesn't feel like it's in the right place.  I would also like to add that I think I've finally gotten into a rhythm, or mode, or maybe that's just the feeling of the week.  I feel like I'm sailing in the calm of the storm, preparing myself for the rest of the semester.  I managed to finish 2 big projects and do pretty well on my modern art test today, lets keep it goin!
  I like to change out the images on the blog in hopes that when I see it, it will inspire me to do a little writing and a little facial reconstruction from time to time.  This week's art is by Franz Marc, and some of his work is in the Walker in the cities. (His most famous, Great Blue Horses) 
Franz never depicted humans in his work and "wanted to see the world through an animal's perspective."  Professor Bland's words on her favorite artist.  I, too are beginning to enjoy this artist and his fantastic use of colors that seem to be a very playful, emotional depiction of the world around us.

Here's the 2nd drawing for this week's assignment.  My panoramic picture didn't quite line up.  value has seemed to work better for me over contour, light and shadow, the cut in the skull really can be confusing, on average I'll erase a line 4 or 5 times before I might get it close.  First drawing inaccurately from light, then maybe from a slice in the skull or a dirty scuff.  By the time I actually tell me self to stop the bull shit and draw the damn contour line I hastily draw a line that someone represents the angle of the plane I want to define.  FOCAS!!

Keep it up!  Damn, gotta keep coming back to this.  Those contour lines are still getting the best of me, but my value seems acceptable to me.  I cannot tell if I'm making any progress yet, but I'm sure it's slow and steady.  Ideally I would love to be in the room at least 2 hours a day, as I'm trying to incorporate my 3d modeling with life drawing, so I'm quite anxious to start getting a better grasp at the human form so that I can use those skills in 3 dimensional programs such as modo, as you can see in the screen shot, from what I've read many 3d artists start from blocks or spheres then work on the very basic shapes of the face, and continually adding more and more detail with more and more, smaller blocks.  It's exactly like life drawing.
