Zoe looks fabulous just the way she is. I can feel her weight and how fur grows from loose skin. Zoe contacts the floor perfectly and there is no question about the space she occupies.
Your figure, although having some nicely painted passages, doesn't have that solidity.
Painting from life is much easier. Photos decrease the amount of information available (athough they have other uses.)
I'm sorry to hear about your arm injury and I hope you recover perfectly no matter what the doctor tells you. I broke my ulna (?) and was told 80% of patients with that injury are never again able to raise their arm to shoulder level.
I've completely regained mobility and the doctor was impressed enough he wanted to know kind of physical therapy was involved. I told him I painted 5 hours a day. He actually passed that on to his associates.
I hope painting helps you heal as completely.
