I've been interested in figure drawing for a long time and decided it was time to do something about it. So, for three weeks now, I've been attending drop-in life self-guided drawing sessions held at an art store - Artists and Craftsmen - in the University District in Seattle.
The sessions are open to anyone . . . you bring your own art supplies, they provide the model and easels and coffee and cookies for the breaks. It all costs $10 a session.
The poses usually vary from one minute to 15 minutes. It is a pure delight . . you don't have time to think . . . you just draw or the pose is over, another has started . . . it's a wonderful way to loosen up and learn to 'see' and trust what you see. The point is to get the significant lines and proportions with quick gestures.
I love it . . . smiling.

Today we are just playing with them tomorrow we start working on placing them together to make stuff. #skillbuilding #homeschooling #prewritingskills #finemotorplanning
