Back to Life Drawing

A very long yearn to draw.

I was free that evening so on a whim, I decided on heading to Bethnal Green's Wednesday Life Drawing class. Wed 5th April 2017. Accommodating class size, friendly staff, friendly model, low pressure / no pressure, nice homemade dhal soup and pitta/hummus dips.

A mixed bag of sketches of the same model... 1 minute, 2 minute, 3 minute, 5 minute, 15 minute, 20 minute and 30 mins! (some noted on the drawings). Not a pro at all but longed for that liberating sense of pencil to paper - as if in another world. Hands and feet are not easy to sketch, I find. I also find warmth in seeing how others use their materials and each perspective is perceived differently.
