Last night, I attended a live figure drawing session at a local art gallery. The model was a new guy and seemed to have no clue what he was doing. I was just grateful to be there so I accepted the challenge and worked to make him look as good as I could in my drawings. I got this lovely angle. Which was an unexpected surprise I guess. I took a deep breath and here’s what I managed to get in a 5 minute pose. Im actually happy with how it came out and I think I figured something out in the process. Sometimes lessons click in your head at the oddest moments… Anyways, here’s some of my notes about drawing foreshortened poses quickly and effectively.
