Fascinating study on proportions Michael. As an onlooker and not an artist, I’m inquisitive how incredible artists like yourself manage to sculpt and paint people to make them appear real. You are master! Thank you for sharing your video! ✨💖 🖼 🎨🖌️

Thank you so much Charlotte. Once one learns the technical part it’s kind of magical. 💫

makes perfect sense, and i bet it also works for music. when i write songs, i look to the lyrics for the rhythms that will best hold it together. very fractal.

I’m glad it makes sense to you and that you can relate to it through music.

I was called a triple threat by setphan Korzynsky. , i was an artist (that is how i got in to college) but also musician and a dancer. many years now. they are absolutely similar, except with music the canvas it time itself. dance a combination of the 2.

Wow, that little finger is impressive and to know that is how he judged each part of the body proportionally is interesting. What a painstaking process.

Definitely painstaking, especially earlier on. I use more triangulation now, that is easier for proportions mixed with perspective.

Yes, I should spend some thought energy on that. I am going to read everything you put forward. I am so happy to have this opportunity to dive in and to have someone with such glorious talent around. I am honored to speak with you on these subjects. *gets YOU a cup of tea.
