March DAC Figure Drawing, Sessions Five and Six

Still having a great time with my figure drawing class. I feel like I have improved a lot since the beginning and I am getting more done in the sessions of the same amount of time these days. It’s interesting how when I am drawing I don’t even notice that I’m on my feet for about an hour and a half standing in the same place, it feels so short. Normally, if I had to stand somewhere for an hour and a half, I would find it tiring, but I could definitely do this for twice as long and not notice.

Session Five

This was a surprisingly difficult pose, and also was a lot of fun. This was 30mns, but I could have spend at least an hour.


I was daring and used a pen for the first time here. I messed up the legs, but the upper body turned out okay and it was interesting. This was a 20mn pose.

Session Six

This was a hard pose. I had such a tough time getting the proportions, that I didn’t get as much done as I would have liked. And I still didn’t nail the the position as well as I wanted to. It was a 30mn pose.

I thought this was an incredibly inspiring pose. Wish I had more than a little under 30mns with it! This was an awesome model. He wasn’t the only one though, we’ve had lots of great models at DAC.
