I went into my first life drawing session, inexperienced compared to maybe some other that may have done life drawings already in college or in a foundation year. We first did 3 sort and quick drawings of our model having 5 minutes to start off with as a warm up.
We then spent a bit longer on 3 new drawings to get more detail onto the paper which lasted 10 minutes each
.
We continued onto finishing off the sessions by going back to use a old technique we would have used in school, which was the continuous line drawing.
I did definitely the experience of doing a life drawing for the first time, as I can then use this improve my understanding of the human figure and how it works as well as the amount of detail you need to put on the paper visually form your eyes. It wasn't so hard to get the proportions when holding up the pencil as a guide but was much harder when doing the continuous line drawings as we couldn't take the pencil off the page.
