after Fechin 2


I was looking at some more fantastic drawings of Nicholi Fechin. This is based off one of them, I was trying to copy his long beautiful flowing lines.


Sometimes when I draw, I enjoy ignoring the overall perportions, not really characature just being loose with the shapes. But, this is the lazy way to draw. You need to be careful with it because it's easy to stop measuring and let it become a bad habit.

Very cool drawing!

Right, Fechin's drawings are great, I love them a lot, too.
BTW, it's interesting that outside Russia his second name spelled with 'CH'. Though, his name in Russian sounds FeSHin. Nikolay Feshin.

Cheers!
