Life Drawing 9/01/17
The lesson was focused around the blending of colour of the background and model, though I struggle with timing full body poses. The second exercise had the model moving to different positions, so the purpose was to find colour and shading in the new poses and to find the transition between each pose. The shading and lighting in the room helped shift the model's colour, from a dark sort of shade, to as she moved, hitting a brighter intensity as another light hit her.

Life Drawing: Space and Detail
After the usual practice of quick studies looking at form, I was recommended to focus in greater detail on the face of our subject. This meant I had to work around the limitations of the chalk and charcoal I was using, which made me appreciate using colour to shade more than I have in the past, lending extra dimension to the drawing.

Animating Life Drawings
A quick animation based on poses I've drawn in sessions of life drawing. The purpose was to exaggerate movement so limbs should appear to move faster as the movement is purposefully less smooth.
By adding more frames and cleaning up the lines and body geometry, the turn becomes clearer.

Life Drawing exercise: Movement




Stepping away from in-depth body studies, our life drawing has moved into faster drawings which signify movement at a faster pace than accuracy. Looking at the example of the artist Eadweard Muybridge, who focused on the photography of moving figures laid out as stills, I tried to capture the sense of the movement in every pose. These sketches are to be used for our animation exercise as a basis for drawing frames.
