Bridgman's books are EXCELLENT (all of them). You're lining up the best instructors, referencing the best books, and you're working like mad. Very inspirational! Copy out of the Bridgman book, and you'll start to thing of the human form structurally. Back it up with frequent sessions from life. These things will be catalysts to understanding how to render form more than painting 100 paintings from snapshots that clients bring you, even though it seems like the long way around now.
