Last night, I went to my first life drawing session in two years. Two years! Yes, I was rusty, but that was to be expected. We had a lovely model who provided some unexpected drama when she fainted dead away in her first long pose. Fortunately, she was sitting on the platform when she passed out, so she didn't have far to go, but it was a little frightening for her and for us. She rallied back and was perfectly okay the rest of the session. So here are a couple of the sketches:
This one was done with a pen. Drawing a soft female figure with a harsh black pen is a challenge, which is why I did it - the whole point being to loosen myself up.
This later one was done with a really crappy plastic mechanical pencil. I like a good mechanical pencil, but this must've come from K-Mart or something. But you run what ya brung, so there 'tis.
