Figure Drawing 2/24/10

Our model last night had laryngitis like symptoms and couldn't talk. Sign language with a Russian accent is even more difficult.

Before the session started was talking to a friend and they reminded me of the principles of an English painter that I like involving planar break down of the forms of the figure. So I decided that would be my direction for the night. I don't think it turned out all bad. This would be better in ink washes or even charcoal but I'm lazy so I stuck to graphite.

Things went quickly and a couple of times a was able to do a second take on a pose.

I'm going to try to do a few of these as small acrylic studies. Got to do something useful with all these drawings.
