Being (art)schooled: Week#7: Life drawing, take two
This week was time to do some more life-drawing. A new model and new way of drawing: out is the gesture approach and in is creating depth and form through shading. This meant that we were drawing with the side of the conte, which was a challenge and meant that I wasn’t as precise with the media as I would have liked.
You’re looking at the last pose of the night, where were supposed to pay special attention to proportion and scale so that our work ends up being steeped in realism.
So much for realism: I chopped off the model’s head and a hand. :)
This was my personal favourite of the night; I like the stylized and graphical elements of it.

About me
I am an education researcher and practitioner, with a focus on higher education and the environment. I consider myself, above all, a naturalist. I'm the pack-mate of two border terriers. I live within the Speed River Watershed in Guelph, Ontario. I enjoy photography. I lead nature tours across North America. I teach courses on Natural History. I likely spend too much time on the Internet.
Oh, and the opinions expressed here are wholly my own.
