love the pastel in the top LH corner and the one next to it has an Egon Schiele feel. Drawing from life helps me connect with & understand the world, what it feels like to be in our bodies. Have a go at being the model, becoming the line is a great way to understand life drawing with the body mind, the vulnerability of being naked, feeling the different tensions that are created holding a pose for 30 seconds, 1 minute, 5 minutes, half an hour, an hour and coming back to the same pose for a painting class.
Thanks Mo, it was an experience. I am so totally not ready for being the model, bur I'll keep your thoughts in mind!. I've signed up for a weekly class. I think I love drawing backs and bottoms.

Deletethey look amazing and I adore the way you have presented them here Jane
ReplyDeleteNothing works as well as life drawing to open the visual heart and loosen the artistic faculty. I envy you.
