Life Drawing Today
These are some of the work from life drawing today. The quick gestures (one minute) are to warm us up. We practice catching the movement of the model. They are fun to do. The longer pose (20 minutes) is done with nupastels. I am trying to work from within the figure instead of outside outlines. I am squinting at the model to see the unity of light and dark and the essential details. I am trying to convey the image with an economy of information. Fun challenge!
