I miss figure drawing. Really, I really do. Oh I'm itching for it, oh man. It's seriously the best productive thing to do--and good music makes it a gajillion times better also. Pop in my ear buds, prop up a sketch pad, pick up freshly sharpened pencils and gogogo I won't stop. I'm loving the contours of the body, the pencil feels through them and slips into the muscles. Really, it's like hot butter running down the body. Mmmmmm. I dunno, the sessions are just amazing. I can't wait to go back for more. Gotta get better.
At first it was really difficult and I had a hard time getting proportions right. But I think it's all about rhythm. Like with anything.
At college there's community figure drawing sessions held every Friday and Saturday, for dos dolares. Best 2 bucks spent every single time! Apparently no other students really know about since the vast majority of people there are either retired or look like they should be retired. Yeh. I think this is one of the best things I've found that college offers, which is not much when it comes to art. It's ridiculous, I mean really, no art organizations beside the freaking overpriced ASUC art classes the UC system offers. Although I have decided to give in and take a watercolor class this summer...$115 for 5 classes, no materials included. What.
Anyway, here are some from the past semester. Most are from the figure drawing decal. Which was just wonderful by the way, made two amazing friends there :)
