Cartoon Body Sketch Practice

This past Monday Renee studied her cartoon bodies sketch book, and she was on a roll cranking out these EIGHT pages of sketches.  She is a good student and gets very motivated with subjects she likes.  So I was glad to see Renee embrace the basic hand and arm sketching exercises.  Her book teaches to start sketching with simple lines and basic shapes like circles and ovals, which is a good way for Renee to improve her sketch technique.  I also want her pay attention to the body part proportions.  Renee finished her sketching with our cartoon family portrait.  I like the sketch except for my haircut.  I must remind Renee that Dad does NOT have a bowl haircut!
