CAM life drawing 5-13-14

A more successful attempt at trying not to work my drawings to death. (I think)

Drawing night 4-22-14

I fell into my comfort zone that I always try to break out of, but just couldn't do it this time.

This one I feel better about, it was the last pose.

Last night, first night back. Didn't expect much, and didn't get much either. Shouldn't be disappointed, right? This drawing isn't great, but there's something about it . . . .

I have debated with myself whether or not to post these drawings. I realize that they could be viewed as self-indulgent maudlin, but in spite of that I think they could stand on their own. I had a lengthy hiatus from life drawing, so I would go into studio and work from professional pose photography, just to try to keep up. In some ways working from a posed photo is easier - you get to tinker with the pose, the model doesn't complain or move, and you can come back to it whenever you want. But in some ways, it is harder - you have to develop the spatial relationships from a flat image - as well as not overwork something just because you can.
This first one is called "Denial"

Things go wrong, but this is going somewhere . . . .

Not sure WHERE exactly, but somewhere. . . .
