Gesture Life Drawings

Gesture Life Drawings, Watercolor Crayons and Water on Bond Paper, 18 x 24This one is about a third of a page,

As is this one...A gesture drawing is very quick, and meant to capture the essence, especially the motion through space, of the subject. Three to five minutes were given for each of these poses. Gesture drawings are most often done as a warm up to a more lengthy study. Stay tuned for the longer pose!

This is the second piece from my day at Kamillia's Life Drawing Session. By this time I was warmed up, and even though this pose was only one hour, I was able to accomplish a good amount.

Life Drawing

This week I joined Kamillia Hardy's Life Drawing Group for a day of sketching and painting from the model. This is something I love to do but I don't have very many opportunities. I really appreciated being able to join in, and it looks like I may be able to attend again soon! Lucky me!
