Mandible Drawing





I started this around 11 AM and did about 2 1/2 hours work on this study of a human mandible replica. it still needs polishing but some of the textures are beginning to come together. In this drawing I stayed away from the blur tool entirely. and found myself playing with the transparency more than anything. I also switched back and forth between different brush tips. Which again i think its important to restrain oneself on having too many tools. I used the same blue background as I described in the last post. The idea for this grey blue ground came from a colleague who teaches life drawing using toned surfaces for a good portion of the semester. It truly helps to thrust the image into reality.
