2nd entry for January 31, 2010





The pose leaning off the stool lasted 5 minutes; the other two are 10-minute studies> I feel that the head study is a fairly good likeness of G- , but it appears to have the face's central vertical axis skewed (an occupational hazard of drawing on a board resting more or less horizontal...)

2nd entry for June 14, 2009







These were all 2-minute poses. D- is a very limber individual. I glanced over at the person drawing beside me, who was really exaggerating the angles and length of limbs & neck, etc. I would have thought that it would have looked too extreme, given how much torque goes into these poses already, but it was working in his sketches. The extremity of her stretches made the exaggeration seem like a logical extension, rather than an imposition on her figure.
