In class for the past week or so, we have really been able to make some headway on our Old Masters Project. Essentially we had to choose a figure drawing done by an Old Master and replicate it. I have been working on a study by Francois Boucher. So far, it has been okay. Using conte to replicate strokes has been a little bit of a struggle - especially when judging width for line quality. Altogether though, I have really enjoyed working with Boucher's drawing strokes; and I feel like I can relate to his sometimes wild and squiggly-like strokes. He for sure is not going for the small details in his piece, but rather more of a raw essence.

I really like the way you lined up the 3 images - makes your process very clear. In future posts you can work to be a bit more specific with dates (since posts will be weekly, it won't be such an issue).
