I arrived at the Figure Drawing session fairly exhausted this week, being in the middle of teaching a 2½ day crash course for one of my businesses (a certification course for operators of public swimming pools). Counting me, only 3 artists were there at Studio b., plus the instructor, Heather Clements, and the owner, Colleen Duffley. The model was unable to make it, so Heather modeled for us without disrobing.
It takes me a while to “learn” a new figure’s shape and proportions. I focused on contours the whole night. In this post I have decided to show examples of my work throughout the whole session, from initial 1-minute and 2-minute gestures to the final 20-minute line drawings. Clicking on the picture will give an enlarged view.
As usual, though I arrived exhausted, I left energized by the thrill of expression.
