Pen, Brush pen, Marker, Faber-Castell color pencils, and a white-out pen for pearls. Our model Karole Foreman was Fantastic!

O Figure How I missed you

I don't know what it is about life drawing for me that makes it so meditative. I attended Teale Street Sculpture Studio Life/Figure Drawing ($15). We had a great model. Met some really nice people.
And I found these from last semester while rummaging for a Sketchbook to bring.

I'm doing a pretty consistent job posting.

I was really drawn to the legs today, probably because of the foreshortening.
