Studies of Michael Loos

Hi All, As i jumped across youtube yesterday searching for tutorials on how to paint, i came across some very awesome Site, which, if you have a little idea of drawing, might get you a lot further.

I analysed it, took as much in as possible, and started a little study today. I came up with a way to start a conceptual aproach to my work. I will have to develop this thing further, yet its a start, that can be of use.
