My drawings from MET visits

This month, I've been going to the MET every week to polish up my observational drawing skills. I like drawing people thus drawing from statues is a great practice. The MET has a vast collection from all over the world and is a perfect place to do that.

Posting some of the drawings here:

Mourning Virgin from a Crucifixion Group; 1450-75; France

The Buddha
Statue from South India, ca. 3rd century

Bather
Marble sculpture by Jean-Antoine Houdon, 1782


I am excited that Sam, my good friend and one of the most talented & skilled artists I know, will be joining me to draw next time! We went to the MET yesterday to see the Heavenly Bodies exhibit together and it was so much fun. I love Sam's attention to details and her passion to study the craftsmanship. And I can never get enough of her charming British accent and her unique sense of humor! You can see Sam's amazing portfolio here.
