The Woman

The idea behind this was to take what I had learned in my recent 'life drawing in colour' classes and put it into some fun/fan art.  I've cropped out half of this drawing though because the proportions of the legs are hella wrong!  I will most definitely try to paint this again and try to come up with a better composition.

A2, 20 mins, pastel

It's a bit of a pastel-ey mess.  I like that this class is pushing me to try different things but this kind of art really isn't me.  Only a couple of weeks left, hopefully the penny will drop some point soon.

This weeks life model was a female body builder! I never managed to finish my colour piece, although I am getting the hang of using gouache.  Hopefully, we'll get this model again and I'll focus on getting some solid drawings rather than worrying about the colour assignments, she gave some great short poses.

My first life drawing with colour class! The teacher is easing us into using colour - I even panicked a tiny bit when I first started to lay down a little of that orange/brown colour.  I do try to work with colour OUTSIDE of life drawing but I don't think I've ever used it like this with charcoal.  Fun times ahead!
