This week in life drawing, I’m spending time looking at the portrait
Being short, it’s rare that I look down on a model. Tonight, I wanted to try drawing from a different perspective.
I normally avoid smudging the charcoal as I like its raw textures, and I can’t help but feel the image melts a little when blending. Tonight however it seemed to work.
After 3 weeks away from class I wondered if I’d struggle with tonight’s life class.
Something wasn’t quite working for me tonight, but sometimes that is the way it is.
One of my drawings tonight was left handed.
Not to make things easy, Frank asked me to draw a thirty minute pose left-handed tonight.
