life drawing-feet

Hey all

I'm trying to do some life drawing for my folio and sat in the park today and quickly sketched a friends feet (talking mins at the max).

I just wondered what you all thought and whether it's folio standard.

Thanks!

The heel and ankle are off, the toes look nice though.

I might accentuate the difference between the ball and the arch on the far side of the feet, and also put across a stronger protrusion of the ankle.

In the closer leg it looks like you've broken it at the bottom. I'm figuring it's a stray mark or a "fade away" but it's distracting.

The toes -are- good, but rather than going for a stark profile considering pushing the lines more where there is a distinction in space. In other words, use overlap to your advantage more to push the perspective of the picture.

I think it looks very good as a start. Seeing portfolios, anyone worth their salt likes to see a mix between anatomical accuracy and expressiveness. Most schools go crazy over them, however, if they're simply well-detailed. You're on the right track. Just tweaks.
