Just a start

Image
Getting a start on the night.  Quite often I get caught behind the clock and I realize I'm being too precious with the drawing.

My pick for fave of the night

Image
Shorter pose but one done with some confidence.

Drapery and a partial figure

Image
I really enjoyed drawing this one and am happy with how it turned out but it still wasn't my favorite image of the night.  Yep, Lady L did a pretty great job for us.

Lady L takes a seat

Image
Basically this is just a leg study.  Granted it was a very long pose to get only this much of a drawing but it happens sometimes.

Head study

Image
Sometimes it is hard to get a good head study done as the model moves a bit too much.   Lady L held firm and I got a pretty decent rendering out of it.

Gestures of Lady L

Image

Image
We had a small group and my model had a scheduling conflict but Lady L stepped in a saved the day for us.  She did a really nice job for us and we are all grateful for her willingness to model at the last minute.  Here are the gestures from last night.

Long pose

Image
She looks comfortable in that pose.  I like a lot about this one but the folded legs mess with my sense of proportion.  I measured all aspects of this several times so, theoretically, this is correct.  It just looks a bit wrong.

Body parts

Image
Just a fun study of limbs and torso.  Not even sure I was trying to pull it all together as I was just having fun finding different masses to render.

A bit of tension

Image
We tried the rope again this week and I find that I really like this prop.  Gives some nice musculature with the back and arms.  Would like to be able to really delve into this pose as well as last week's tension/rope pose.

Gestures of Molly

Image
Thank you so much, Molly, for stepping in at the last moment.  You really knocked it out of the park with your poses.

Loved this pose

Image
One of our group brought a rope to help us "pull" off this pose.  Love the tension and Lady B did an excellent job of holding this one.  Fun.

Longest pose

Image
Last sketch of the night.  Much more time to work on it than the others.  Not my favorite, though.

Sketchy

Image
Good start but will never be finished.

Gift for Lady B

Image
Our model asked for this sketch of which I was happy to oblige.  Surprised since I don't think it was my best effort.

Gestures of Lady B

Image

Image
A small group last night but we had a bit of fun with some of the poses.  These are the gestures from the evening.

Regal posture

Image
Lady J has a lot of interesting aspects that are fun to draw.  Her waif like torso, long neck and very expressive hands just make her a source of endless intriguing artistic possibilities.

All stretched out

Image
I love the rib structure that Lady J puts on display.  So much fun to draw.

Go Team!

Image
Okay, so it looks to me like she is raising a pom pom.  Anyhow, just a simple back study.

Posture

Image
A bit more of a nuanced drawing in comparison to the one I posted Friday.
