Figure Drawing with Friends (Patreon)

Michael kindly allowed Erika and Lucy to join us for figure drawing on Wednesday night, so they got a taste of my usual Wednesday evenings! We had Brittany for the night and started off with our 5-minute poses.

Our cartoonist majority won us a few extra ten-minute poses, which are my favorite...

... but as is probably evident due to the unfinished bits in these ten-minute drawings, I was pretty relieved to get on to the 20-minutes.

This final 20-minute pose was drawn while we listened to Gorecki's Symphony of Sorrowful Songs, which moved me to the brink of tears, and definitely changed the way I saw every line and shadow on her body. Woof, highly recommended, if you need something to kick some emotion into you!

And we wrapped up with one ten-minute:

Lucy posted her beautiful China marker drawings from this session just an hour ago, so you can go have a look at her representation of the same model, from about 90 degrees from where I was sitting!
