College – Life Drawing – Weeks 1-7

Well I’ve just finished the first life drawing module of the course, and we were assessed today. Indications are I’m doing very well… Perhaps you would like to judge for yourself? These are phone photos of my drawings – I’ll get better pics when I get the drawings home and use a proper camera. By kind permission of our life model.

Life Drawing - Week 1 (2x 20m)

Life Drawing - Week 3 (2x 45m)

Life Drawing - Week 4 (2x 45m)

Life Drawing - Weeks 6 & 7

The last one is our final piece – three sittings (45m, 45m and 60m) in (more or less) the same pose. It was great to hear one of my classmates comment ‘it looks so 3D’ 🙂  I like working on the charcoal ground – it seems to help me capture the form of the figure much better.

  1. Thank you for sharing all four drawings. It was wonderful to see the progression and the fourth does look 3D. Also thanks to your Life Drawing model. I do like the charcoal ground as well.

  2. I agree. The drawings show a natural “feeling” for the genre and he draws me the way he sees me, without flattery or exageration. Oh, yes, I am the model………..Steve B. Robinson BA(hons) Fine Art. Google me under my name or under ART-CELL. Nice work Neil, keep it up.
