I think your figure drawings and the rendering of the shell looks excellent. Am I right in quessing that these were drawn from life, while the paintings were from imagination with some help from photographic references?

Yeah.

I have some new work to show. This is my work as a student at Georgetown Atelier (Link if you are interested in knowing more about this school), a small art school in Seattle, from my first year. Enjoy.

Here is a link to the gallery that cycles through the drawings: http://ifatart.com/drawings/

Careful, these involve nudity and may not be suitable for viewing at work.







I'll update more later on.

Really great, Ifat. Your drawing of the woman holding her breast is incredible. It has a painting-like feel to it. I can't believe how your new work is so different.

Hi again. I haven't posted in a while. Here are some drawing from last year and some new paintings from this year. I'm studying at a small private art-school called Georgetown Atelier, these are all my student works. Enjoy, and if you like it you can visit my website/blog and subscribe at ifatart.com. I update my work and thoughts about art there. Thanks!

This is very interesting -- I happened to see your earlier posts and see your earlier work, and I was going to advise you to look into an atelier for some solid training, as you needed improvement in a number of areas, but especially in the areas of figure work and values. And now that I finally got to your last entry, I see your work has improved dramatically -- because you are going to an atelier! Congratulations....I have my own atelier, and it is always enjoyable to see how students improve in leaps and bounds when given the proper kind of instruction.

My early paintings and drawings were from imagination, I wasn't using references at all so yeah... they were very much off in a lot of ways. An experienced artist would make far better imaginative figure. I definitely appreciate my atelier training and life drawing practice and realize now how valuable they are.

You have an atelier, that's great! Link please? Also, what is your name or website so I may view your work?

A 4-week portrait painting in Oil.

If anyone is interested this painting is offered for sale as well as the rest of my student work. I will be using these greatly needed funds for my tuition and art supplies.
You have all the info on my blog: Link.

Check out Ifat's portrait of Rand which is appearing on the cover of the fall 2012 issue of The Objective Standard:



What a massive improvement in skill! Good job, Ifat.

Hello Peeps! I have some news. One is the cover of TOS which I see someone posted about above. Another is about my blog, ifatart.com It has a significant amount of posts about the philosophy of art. You might find it interesting. You can subscribe via email or via Facebook. I normally post once a week, so I consider it a mild amount, not a flood-your-inbox type.
On my Facebook page I also load images of all sorts of sketches and paint studies I make.

This is my third year at Georgetown Atelier which means I will be doing mostly color paintings (full palette) this year. My blog is basically kind of a diary recording my artistic progression.

Hello Peeps! I have some news. One is the cover of TOS which I see someone posted about above.

"Someone"?

Not "Jonathan"?

And no "Thank for posting it, and thanks for the compliment and cordiality"?

If I remember correctly, you were rather insulting to me when I posted here several years ago. So no, no "thank you". Please don't turn this thread featuring my art into a personal discussion.

Some neat new stuff: I'm currently working on anatomy at my school. We draw models and then draw their skeleton and muscles based on our knowledge of anatomy and what we see. Here are some sketches:
