diananock:

While I was moving to the new apartment last month, I located some drawings I did about a year-and-a-half ago at a life drawing co-op hosted at my old art college MCAD. So I thought I’d scan and clean them up a bit to show to people.

We had a really great model that night. She was in great shape and good at holding fun poses. She also had the greatest curly dreadlocks that were partially pulled back in a loose bun and a strong face. You can tell I had a lot of fun drawing her.

The really loose gestures were done in 2- and 5-minute segments. I think the really developed ones at the top and bottom were both 20-minute poses? (It’s been a while.) And there are some that were in-between.

I do prefer to sketch directly in ink. Keeps me from being too precious, and I think the drawings come out stronger for it.
