Do not stop! Strive for excellence.

There is so much wisdom in the words that follow. I must share these with you all.

"It is easier to draw the figure than it is to paint it. And you can only paint the figure as well as you can draw it. If, through the medium of drawing, you do not understand the surface of the human body, nor comprehend its subtle formal structure, there is very little likelihood that you will master it in paint. All the great painters have been great draftsmen. This is because drawing is the essence of painting."

The artists complete guide to Figure Drawing by Tony, is a also a must have book. www.tonyryder.com/a-book.htm
