OUGD602 - PPP3 - Inspiration and Development - Life Drawing Society

I have recently joined the Life Drawing Society at Leeds College of Art because I want to get back into drawing again, what with my dabbling with my Bamboo Tablet  - I think that being able to draw people will help with my concept art. Plus, people are really hard to draw and I think that it's always useful to be able to have this skill. Drawing hands isn't my strong point!

I attended the session yesterday and was a little rusty at first, but then seemed to pick up where I left off in college which boosted my confidence a lot. Plus, I wrestled with a HUGE spider which fell off the lecture theatre's ceiling, which is an achievement in itself.

Here are some pictures of my sketches produced in the session:


In the first part of the session, I was a bit rusty as I had not drawn like this in years - I tried to focus on the parts I had trouble drawing like hands and feet and I usually had trouble drawing the correct length of limbs.


the second part of the session was a bit better, and I produced something that actually bared resemblance to the man in front of us! 


The final part of the session was the most successful, but it didn't really challenge me because the most difficult parts - the hands and feet, weren't on show so much...


Unfortunately, I doubt that I'll get much chance to attend many sessions, but I'll try to go as often as possible.
