Life Drawing Class This Week

This weeks class was quite fast paced in the fact that we had a maximum of 3 minutes per drawing, challenging to say the least.

The focus was to do with concentration on the person you were drawing apposed to the paper in front of you. Keeping your eye to what you draw helps you pick up more therefore giving it more of a accurate description. The class wasn't about perfection of your work but more about recognition and being able to flow with yourself.

One interesting technique we were shown in class was continuous line in which you had to keep your pencil to the the paper and make connection between the life model and the background surrounding them, it took me a while to get use to this discipline but eventually loosened up to it.
