Friday Night Drawing

I went to drawing tonight because I felt like going out, and also I needed physical personal space away from this portrait commission on my easel.

Drawing was at the National Arts Club, and it was so nice to be back... I haven't been in there since before Covid stuff.

The session tonight was an instructed session, which was nice because I always find Simon's perspective very insightful.  It's also really important to get out of normal grooves and just think differently.

In general drawing is all about the mind and thinking. We focused on design and composition and really seeing very abstract forms in the overall picture.  It wasn't really about drawing the figure or anatomy.

Thumbnails first, then the 1 hour pose. Model was the lovely Lola.

Graphite on Strathmore toned tan.
