Experimenting With Figure Drawing

Figure drawing is not my cup of tea, however, I feel as though it is something I must do to expand my skills as an artist. For the next few weeks, I will attempt to improve myself in this area as I use the great master Rubens, as inspiration.  Although I am aware of the fact that I will in no way, shape, or form be comparable to that great master, I will be able to appreciate his techniques.  Please look forward to seeing my well intended, yet poorly executed, figure drawings in the near future.
