I think I’ve mentioned before that it’s good practice to draw with the ‘other’ hand, in my case, the left. It engages the other side of your brain and makes you look at the subject and drawing in a different way. I find that I’m more analytical and the drawing is in some ways more technical when I do this, while the line is less accurate and more wobbly, so there’s an interesting tension going on in the drawing.
This is one of our fabulous group of life models drawn onto a large piece of brown wrapping paper in soft chalky pastels.

I’ve got to try that sometime.
It’s an interesting experience and I find it gives my work a little bit of a push in an unexpected direction
Stumbled onto your blog by accident …. which is pretty much how I live my life. The results are nearly always interesting and sometimes, downright inspiring,. Like yours.
A simple drawing … but the twisted shoulder and spine are very eye-catching, because so few artists go beyond the simple view of spine and buttock, “posed” somewhat woodenly, There’s an energy in this which I like very much. And the fact you switched hands ( and sides of your brain) to do this is doubly intriguing.
Will peruse more of your sketches this weekend when I’m free. You are GOOD ….
Scribblah is going to be my first “follow” …..
Thank you Nikki. I love the premise of your blog to focus on the joy of learning music 🙂
It is good practice and one well worth mentioning, something I haven’t done for too long – now I’ve been getting back to drawing I must do it again as an exercise!
ooH yes it’s a great thing to do 🙂
Wow, you can draw better with your ‘wrong’ hand than I can with either of mine, & I’m ambidextrous!
Although ambisinistrous would be more acurate 😀
hahaha Thank you 🙂
WOW!
Thank You 😀
