Waiting around, I decided on a change from drawing my hand, or just my foot. Why not draw the leg that I’m resting my sketchbook on. For the second drawing I wanted to switch to my right leg crossed over but I discovered that I can’t cross my legs that way. I’m a left-handed leg-crosser.
The scale went awry in the second drawing when I reached my trainer and got involved in detail, enlarging my foot in relation to my leg in the process.
I feel like David Carradine in ‘Kung Fu’. Every week his wise old master would tell him ‘You have much to learn, grasshopper’. I feel that if I kept at it I could get nearer. One problem that I have is that my left leg is shorter than my right, although I don’t really see why that should stop me crossing my legs the other way!
