There aren't really words for it, so here are a bunch of pictures with a TON of info in them, a massive information dump which is very fitting for the lecture.
If you are interested in Mr. Weston's materials, head on over to Drawing America, where you can get his lectures and some classes online. It is extremely worthwhile. I need to work with these materials for a while- he says it takes 4-6 weeks. It's overwhelming so I need to slow it down and just do a lot of homework.
ALL THESE DRAWINGS WERE DONE BY WILL WESTON.

My work from the workshop was pretty crappy for the most part.
That's ok, workshops are meant to be learning environments and change the way you work. They are not meant to produce finished results. To be able to draw well requires that you draw and draw and draw and draw and draw and I don't do enough and my anatomy is seriously rusty.
Musicians are not precious about practice scales, or most of their practice as finished- drawing is exactly the same.
These are my drawings. Most were 5 minute poses, a few 10s and the arms/hands and faces were 2 min poses. The multi-figure poses were composition exercises with storytelling, each was a 5 min pose we had to arrange. I think I forgot to photograph the arms/hands page and I'm too tired to go back and do it.
