figure challenge

[mbeckett]

These are all soooo good! We will tag along to watch your progress.
Yesterday on Black Friday, Sktchy ran a special discount for their January class (a portrait a day) so signed up again for that. Have you ever done that one?

thanks Kay!
no.. never tried that Sktchy one. as you can tell from this thread, i am not very good at committing to daily challenges!

These are all very good, but this one is my favorite. There's a grace and elegance to the figure that is beautiful.
