Life Drawing #06.16

This time at life drawing I had the feeling, I needed a more cartoony, slightly exaggerated style to catch the model's beauty. It really suited her and it gave me time to draw one pose several times from different angles.

Bodies

In January I was very happy because of the figure drawing sessions I visited. I tried out my new water color crayons from caran d'ache, using them like pencils first. I actually wanted to see what happens when I add water, but then the drawings were so satisfying to me, that I didn't want to ruin them. The crayons have a very soft feeling when drawing, which works really well with lines as well as shading.

In the last few weeks I actually managed to visit figure drawing in Würzburg. It's so relaxing to just concentrate on the drawing. I have to draw more *__*

Lady Night

Yesterday I took some time drawing girls. That's what I do to relax. Draw girls. Not much thinking involved, no meanings and no content. Although perspective and proportions aren't perfect, I like the outcome, having used new techniques and seeing how my ability of sight has changed since visiting animation school.
