Life Drawing

      I have been looking forward to this day since the beginning of the course… And obviously, this being able to do an all-day life drawing workshop. I have had quite a lot of experience doing life drawing at my old school for a series of weeks using different methods and medias to create a range of drawings/paintings. I love this sort of development process because it enables us to enhance our drawing skills, which is even more helpful for design and illustration when creating garments. Moreover, I find life drawing very therapeutic in the sense you take time to draw the model instead of a stand-still object.

                                                                  

     This day really relates to the structure of the body and its anatomy, with the different poses, bone structure, muscles and more. Below are some examples of what I created today and I really got a glimpse of how everyone works differently to each other, adding much more perspectives to the individuals work. 

     I would like to do this again in the near future so that I can do what I missed out on today or improve on what I needed to work on. Plus, it has also inspired me to create some more drawings within my sketchbook, which will increase my overall development work and research towards this project of 'Structural Attachment in Mono'. I would also like to go to a few more galleries next week to expand on my research also because it will greatly benefit me if I see other artists' work and see how I could relate back to them in my own way.
