It's a pleasure - I love your work. I'm only 15 so not very experienced (or skilful) but I aim to be as good as you one day! I see in your gallery that you do a lot of life drawing - I've just begun a class and it's really useful. I'm going to post some of my drawings so far soon, any tips would be very much appreciated!! The drawing book by Bargue also sounds interesting so I may try and get a copy... congrats on the DD, Laura.

Life drawing is an invaluable experience for gaining proper proportion and for becoming sensitive to the gesture of the model's pose. I would be happy to give you tips on any drawings you post. I would also recommend Bridgeman's Constructive anatomy. Its a cheap book (under 10) and is what I use with my students to teach life drawing. He has several books all of which are wonderful. And since he draws the anatomy, you get a great example of line quality and expressive mark making as well as what the important anatomy too look for is. I would recommend practicing drawing from this book in addition to the model.
