Seated Dude


I thought I'd add students to the foreground of today's Life Drawing Session. Lately I've been drawing the model (as a middle ground) with the students (as the background). I really like the added foreground element, however it means I have to sit in the back...  I may need to buy some binoculars before next session!

red stripes


One of my New Year's Drawing Resolutions is to do some fabric studies. I need the practice since, at life drawing there is always fabric draped behind the model which can be just as intimidating as the figure.
