Life Drawing

A recent return to life drawing has brought me great happiness. I’ve always enjoyed it, but lately even more so. I’ve been going to sessions at the Millennium Gallery, where the models and tuition are marvellous. I’m learning more now than I did in five years at art college!

The sessions are two hours long, with several shorter poses: blind drawing, drawing negative spaces, drawing with both hands using different drawing materials, and finishing with a 20 minute pose. These are my 20 minute drawings.

I’ve drawn in soft pencil, charcoal, oil and my favourite, soft pastels on brown or grey sugar paper.
