This week we worked on drawing and more on our mannequins. On Monday we had the option of either working on our mannequins or drawing from the model. I chose to draw all class period because I feel like I should take advantage of it since I could work on my mannequin at any time. I also enjoy drawing more than working on the mannequin, but anyways lets get back on track. It was a little strange having only a few of us drawing on Monday, however it was much needed practice. I am not sure if it was because I was in charge of the timer, but it was one of my best days of drawing yet I feel. I felt more relaxed about it and tried to work on my speed a little more. I managed to get more of the model into my drawings in a shorter period of time. I think I almost treated it like an open drawing session where I could do my own thing all class long.
Wednesday went just as well. I feel like the problems I am having is with trying to get the angle of the pelvis and where the shoulder blades should be. Even so, there is a lot I have learned and managed to get right, so I don't feel as bad. I wouldn't say I am completely satisfied with my drawings this week, but to me I made some progress. This entire week has been a good one for me making progress in all of my classes. So I hope the changing weather is an indication of how the rest of the semester will go.
Friday was one of those days I really didn't feel like going to class. So when I learned it was cancelled, it was a sure sign that this was a terrific week. I also worked on my mannequin all "class period" instead of after class like I was originally going to do.
I'm glad things are going well for you :)
ReplyDeleteIt's a good way thinking, that although you're not satisfied you are remembering your progress and using it to boost your enthusiasm. Kudos to you!
I'm glad your week went well, and I hope you are able to get the same results in the upcoming weeks!
