Figure Drawing, portrait session

We had Renee in for an extra drawing session tonight, and had her dedicate to 2 1hr poses so that we could focus on her portrait and get some more serious drawings out of it. Well.. i felt like i needed about 5 more hrs to be able to do something right. The drawings were HORRIBLE. so. I took pictures, and went home and drew from the photo :P

Here's some stuff from tonight's figure drawing session. We had the lovely Renee dressed up as a pirate slash gypsy!

Perhaps at some point I will catch you up on the rest of my life..maybeee..
Meanwhile, listen to THIS!!!

Drawing and moving, moving and drawing

Thank you Jance and Regina for helping me move stuff tonight. I can't believe how much we got done! This would have been a nightmare without you.

Also, Here's a sketch from last night's figure drawing session. It's the only one I was happy with, although there were many lovely poses. I really feel the rust from that break we took from having the drawing sessions (just as I was getting back into the groove). Gotta try not to let it slip away...

Figure Drawing

Tonight was interesting... I got the impression that she was highly uncomfortable for some physical pain reason..It made it a bit uncomfortable to draw her as I felt responsible for not allowing her to rest...but i can only respect her for carrying out her commitment and working with us tonight. Hell knows I would say fuck it and stay home.

Anyway, I didn't really get drawings I was happy with, but here are the ones I don't mind showing.

Maybe I'll try to have something to show for every week that we do figure drawing... Tonight i wasn't in a drawing mood, so most of the time I was thinking something else... but here's one drawing that came of the evening. She was a redhead, and the red ballpoint pen felt appropriate..

and I thought this one was plain cute, felt like posting it too..

Figure drawing last night

Whee look, i still draw :P it's true! Here are some ones I was roughly happy with from last night's drawing session. We've been drawing every wednesday for weeks now, but I only lately I feel like I'm starting to get back into the groove of it. I can tell that going to the drawing sessions is making a difference.

update! : i rescanned the sketches at home, better quality, whoo
