Figure Drawing June 24th, 2019
When I went to IMC and spent a week painting…. I realized that I wasn’t doing myself any favors by working with silver point at Figure Drawing. Silverpoint tends to make me make small teeny marks. For my painting I would prefer fluid moving marks. The digital isn’t quite that, but it is lightyears closer than the silverpoint is. So for the time being I will be working digitally again.
For a change up this week we started with 5 one minute gestures instead of the 3 five minute poses that we normally started with.
Video of the timelapse drawing.
Seems like you have a wide selection of available models. The sculpture group tries to get models and ends up with the same small pool…
They do have a nice selection and variety of models. We are fortunate. Definitely more female models than male. For a while they were trying to alternate male/female models each week and we just wound up drawing the same two guys over and over again.
