Here's two more drawings form the week's life drawing class. These two were from near the end of the class. They were longer poses, but because of where i sat there was less information to draw (first pose is mostly her back, second pose was mostly obstructed by the chair). Given the limitation, i decided to try and draw the pose in a couple of different mediums, instead of just using the technical pencil i had been depending on for most of the class. Got some interesting results.

With the first pose, i concentrated just on line with the pen, then on basic shadow with the brush-pen and finally, having a good understanding of the pose, went in and emphasized all the subtle shadows.

With the second pose, i first did a toned pencil drawing (not posted here), but feeling brave, i whipped out the brush-pen and did a much looser drawing, then did the same with a pen. Got some varied results which i all found interesting. Have to say, i really enjoyed the class and it pushed me to think a lot more about what i was drawing, which is really refreshing when you're used to drawing from your head all day, every day.

i really like these man, think the best one is the one of the girl lying back, with the light line, nice man!
Some really nice results here Dec, but I think by far the most interesting pieces are the ones executed in brushpen, just seems to suit you better.
Thanks guys.
Hmm. While i'm certainly very comfortable with the brush-pen, and happy with the results, i really liked that i used a different approach for a change. I would hate to be completely reliant on the brush-pen.
