Reportage Sketchbooks P3; Life Drawing

Sketchbook 7


This sketchbook marker my first life drawing session of my time at university - my materials of choice were coloured fineliner and quill and ink. The latter was a bad choice, as it was extremely messy to work with during times where I had to draw quickly - however, the ink splotches did create some nice effects.

This is the second sketchbook from the same life drawing class - I'd gotten to grips with working with quill and ink a lot easier by this time round, and had begun to improve on proportions and perspectives.

This is from a different life drawing session - one that marked a couple of firsts for me. For starters, though I had participated in several life drawing classes before university, I had not once experienced a male model - it turned out to be a lot more difficult than I anticipated and I struggled. The second was our fantasy drawings - we were instructed to take the post given by the model and place him in a fantasy situation; this was great fun, I would definitely have loved to do it again. Learning from my previous mistake, this book was completed using black fineliner, a lot neater and easier to work with than quill and ink.
