Back to Reality...


This week whilst visiting a friend in London, we randomly went to a life drawing class. It was a beginners class, so i felt a lot more relaxed, especially as the model only did long poses. Prior to this, i have recently spent a lot of time getting back to basis and focusing on anatomy and using different materials. I want to get back into the routine of attending weekly classes... I didn't realize just how much i have missed it. :)

Very cool TC! Good to hear you are taking life drawing classes again. You dont look out of practice though. Will you be going to the London comic con in a few weeks time?

Love the drawing! I keep promising to myself that I should go back to do a night class or something - get back into it - it's YEARS since I last picked up a pencil...

Of course I keep breaking the promise.

Love the blog!

I don't know where to start. Ive been waiting to see what you'll post next and I come to your blog and find 3 awesome posts. How long did the nude take you? It looks photographic. Hope all is well ms Cat.

Wow a compliment on life drawing from Tori Cat! That is something to be proud of. I'm glad you liked my polar bears as well. Your art is really impressive and I hope I can reach your level some day :)

Wowsers! It's very real, amazing attention to detail and sensitivity to the lighting! And great rendering too.

Can't believe you need to be in a 'beginners' class to feel relaxed...I'd hate to see what the pros can do!

Just out of interest, how long was this pose?

C.Deboda said...

Nice rendering on the jeans shorts!
