Drawing From Life

Drawing From Life

The past few weeks I have been attending some live drawing sessions. I haven’t had the opportunity to draw from life in years and enjoyed the opportunity to have a live reference rather than static images online. The two sessions I attended were the Big City Dare 2 Draw and the Friday Open Drawing Sessions in the illustration department at Parsons. Here are some of the sketches from the sessions.

 

There are 2 other drawing sessions that I want to try Dr. Sketchy’s which has drawing events in several cities  and The Art Students League.
