Morna modelled for our first December session. I was struggling with the conte pastel so did most of the drawings in pencil.

Life Drawing, 27th November

Life Drawing, 27th November

I have been snowed under with a job, Christmas, and a new niece (all very exciting but quite hard work) and that's meant my life drawing from last year has been put aside until now. First up are drawings of model Gina, from back in November!

Life Drawing with Cello, 30th October

Some life drawing sketches of Sarah with her cello. I struggled a bit with the conte pastel, so I abandoned it for the pencil. The cello was difficult to draw! I've got one more week to catch up on which I'll post tomorrow.

Expression Gestures

30- and 60-second gestures of expressions from Line of Action. I enjoyed thinking about the shapes and movement within the face.

Life Drawing, 5th June

I went back to conte pastel for last week's session - I think shaking up the medium every so often helps to keep things fresh! First-time model Silvi held some great poses.
