Life Drawing Lesson 1

Figure 1

Yesterday we had our first life drawing lesson. Since it was the first lesson, I experimented a lot with different tools and technics.

Figure 2

Figure 3

Figure 2 was my first sketch, where we only had 2 minutes time for each drawing. For some of them we were told to draw them out of one line, without lifting up our pencil.

The right drawing in figure 3 was drawn holding a pencil and a charcoal at the same time.
For the left drawing on the paper we had to draw with our arm fully extended while drawing.

Figure 4

I really enjoyed the lesson and the fact that we were told to try new things which helped me to approaching life drawing differently. 

Personally, I enjoyed the quick sketches more, since it helped me to get a better image of the body, rather than getting too tempted to draw too many details. 

I personally like figure 1 the most, since I tried to focus on specific body parts, rather than drawing the whole body. 

Definitely looking forward to the next lesson to try even more new things.
