2nd entry for May 18, 2010
These were 2-minute poses. The poses were visually striking, but my drawing was pretty messy.

On the Tuesday I was in the thick of my weeklong workshop, but made a trip over to the Drawing Room session, as a personal test of stamina.
A- was the model, and these were some of the 30-second and 1-minute poses that she did.

3rd entry for May 16, 2010
Below are two 20-minute and above are 15-minute poses that S- took in the latter part of the evening. One I arrived late for, so I just focussed in on drawing her hair for the time available. I find that a really good focussing exercise, to try to accurately depict someone's hair rather than to approximate it.
It's always been my opinion that having a model available to work with is such a privilege, and such a great resource. So at times when inspiration or energy aren't in sync, those are the times when giving oneself a focus problem is really worthwhile. It always puzzles me a little in shared drawing situations when people run out of things to do during the duration of a pose. It always seems there is more to find to occupy oneself, if one looks. Or another study to benefit from the time available.

These are two 5-minute studies and two 10-minute ones. I was more than a little distracted that night, and my drawing was not quite as sharp as it has been in some days.

It was a slog to get a workshop of mine up and running, but in the end the people did sign up, and the week's workshop went ahead. I spent a chunk of the Sunday getting a studio at the TSA ready for the monday class, but I took some time out to go sketch for myself.
S- was working, and these were some of the 1-minut poses that she did.
