Practice Makes Perfect (male nude)

april 09

Just back from life drawing at Swansea Print Workshop and it was a tough one this evening. The pose is deceptively difficult, with foreshortening of the hands and legs and the model leaning back made the head a bit odd too. I struggled, using several grades of graphite stick onto a vintage Saunders paper. I used a very scribbly line (to cover up mistakes lol) and measured carefully as I was drawing, but still not quite right. Still, practice makes perfect as my Nana used to say.
