In class

The drawing below was so much fun. I worked faster than I usually do, not stressing much since it was the last class. And… it turned out the most awesome of all of them. Each week, I’ve wanted so badly for my drawing to have the model’s likeness, instead of just being a proportional-but-generic woman. This time it really [almost] does look like her.

Clothing is such a great extension of personality. Her shirt was red and black striped, but we were instructed to look past the pattern and just draw just the folds. That was a challenge! I was just getting used to the effects of light on skin. Fabric is a different beast altogether!

I’m sad that this class is over, for two reasons (the combination of which has been true of all my favorite classes):

1. We made such great memories in class. Each week, all the personalities blended into a sweet, genuine supportiveness that I can’t even describe… we felt like family.

2. The breakthroughs and discoveries I made on my own were really  significant, as you know if you’ve been around me the last few months! I never thought I’d be able to claim drawing as a skill. I do now, and I’m excited about where it could take me in future projects!
